Hello everyone,
Today i will discuss about Katazome which is also called Katagami, it is a paper stenciling technique. In which the rice paste is applied through the washi paper.
Washi is an Japanese hand made paper which is cut in to form a design.
This paper tends to be very strong, so for shaping it the knife is pulled towards the craftman for the application of the shape.This technique is used since centuries and its origin is from Japan itself. The rice paste applied over it is applied via a knife.
