Washi tape featuring divine elephant motifs, illustrated by Kutani ware artist Yasushi Yamachika, depicting a celebratory procession of a benevolent elephant with an Indian flair.
Born into a family renowned for Kutani ware, Yasushi Yamachika grew up immersed in its artistic traditions. From the world painted with Kutani's traditional five colors (red, green, purple, yellow, and blue), he discovered the beauty of color and learned the techniques of free expression, crafting a fantastical and unique worldview.
Elephants play a vital role in Indian culture and symbolize numerous auspicious meanings. The artist thus chose to depict elephants celebrating the arrival of spring during the Holi Festival, showcasing their diverse celebratory movements. The background pattern is a combination of the yōraku mon (a decorative motif used by Indian nobility) and floral designs.
