inanga > Kabuki Sun 

(collage by Cat).

The Sallies is a pet name for the Salvation Army. I have shopped there regularly for cheap clothing and art materials – frames, backgrounds, glass and other knickknacks. I found two faceless Japanese paper costumes on a card and thought that some time later they could be used in a picture.

My partner has a sister we call Cat, and she is an accomplished craftsperson. I gave her the painted canvas background, the paper costumes and a couple of photographs of possible faces. The rest of this remarkable piece is her doing. She fashioned a superb 3-D Japanese kabuki scene by refashioning the paper garments, making papier-mâché faces and beading and sewing to the canvas to produce an ethereal curtain and sun. I framed the completed piece and it was taken away for exhibition.

I can’t say much more than that as Cat really created this piece.
