Sekka built his images from flat, bordered planes — a black lattice wing, a slab of night water, a band of reeds, the white bird and its moon. It is design thinking a hundred years early, and it separates into flat screens with no compromise: four spot inks, zero gradients.

This one shows flying fish leaping among reeds. Its material is the whole story: mulberry paper treated with fermented persimmon juice, reinforced with fine silk threads — and those silk threads are, quite literally, the bridge from paper stencil to silkscreen. We print it the way the stencil dyed cloth: the shirt \u003cem\u003eis\u003c\/em\u003e the indigo field, and the fish are resist-dyed in cream.
