"The other day, I went to the Noguchi Museum in Takamatsu, and it was very impressive." It was a good opportunity to get a glimpse of his spirit.

Beautiful. When you consider how much goes into making them, they are worth every penny.

The same way it was put together, but each piece gets slid out through the hole in the lantern.

Amazing artist. Thank you for sharing this with me. I watch every video i find of these lanterns being made. I do have a question, though. Is the cord done in a continuous wrap, or are the different sizes cut as you go?

Hypnotic; a device like a prism it reassembles energy back into a light we are drawn to.
