Alcohol consumption is allowed for those 21 and over in the beer and wine garden only.

SUMMARY:Woven Light: Washi Sculptures by Yuri Kinoshita
DESCRIPTION:This summer\, Portland Japanese Garden is host to a glowing world of light. Woven Light showcases the illuminated washi sculptures of Yuri Kinoshita\, a Seattle-based artist who artfully crafts floating landscapes of light through her sculptural lamps that bridge the art and design world. Guests who visit the Calvin and Mayho Tanabe Gallery will see that through carefully hand-woven and sculpted washi (Japanese handmade paper made from plant fibers)\, soft light and shadow inspire a magical sense of place\, evoking the unique environment of the Pacific Northwest. More than artwork\, Kinoshita’s works are experiences that transport the viewer into a warm world of light through both works that evoke natural forms and abstracted shapes that inspire contemplation.\n\nKinoshita’s beautiful artworks are full of exciting textures and shapes that warm the mind and soul while also offering an opportunity to learn more about how washi is used for art\, design\, and decoration in Japan.\n\n\nEditor’s note: This event is a community submission.
