Sushi

Sushi is an iconic element of Japanese food culture, reinterpreted here through three-dimensional mizuhiki knotting.
The freshness and translucency of the toppings are expressed through mizuhiki knots, evoking even a sense of mouthfeel.
In Japan, sushi embodies a sensitivity to seasonal bounty and the refined skill of nigiru—the gesture of shaping rice and topping into a single form.
Beloved in both celebratory and everyday settings, sushi is translated in this work into the language of mizuhiki as a traditional material.
