Miyabi Musubi Black and White Sukajan, Kingyo Goldfish, Dragon, Kiku and Lotus Embroidery, Size XL

A Japanese water garden, translated into tattoo-art embroidery. Miyabi Musubi gathers kingyo goldfish, a dragon, lotus, water lilies and chrysanthemums on a black and white souvenir jacket, keeping the old wagara pattern language alive on the Yokosuka form.

The Piece

Miyabi Musubi works in wagara, the language of traditional Japanese pattern, and this black and white sukajan draws its imagery from the water garden: kingyo goldfish, admired in Japan for their ornamental beauty, alongside a dragon (ryū), flowers including kiku chrysanthemums, water lilies and lotus. The motifs are rendered in a tattoo-art embroidery style on the classic Yokosuka jumper form.
