A celebration of the career of dyer, artist, and educator Samiro Yunoki.

Mr Samiro Yunoki, one of the most extraordinary, and most inspirational artists I personally truly admired recently passed away at age 101. This book was published when he was 100 years old, to celebrate his career of dyer, artist and educator.

--

Dyer, craft and visual artist, educator, designer, creative: all these descriptions fit Samiro Yunoki, who turned hundred years old in 2022. This catalogue to a commemorative exhibition at the Joshibi Art Museum focuses on three dimensions—the versatile talents of the artist himself, the works born from his fusion of diverse elements, and his creative activities as an educator at the Joshibi University of Art and Design. The volume introduces the signature themes of Yunoki's oeuvre and looks back over a colorful century of life and art while offering insights into his appeal, which remains ever vibrant to this day.

Presented are some 150 works, including stenciled and other dyed textiles, glass paintings, and book covers from the 1950s to 2000s; art pieces for the Ace Hotel Kyoto (opened in 2020); and 2022 designs produced in collaboration with the Idée interior design brand.

Samiro Yunoki was born in 1922 in Tokyo. An encounter with Muneyoshi Yanagi’s Folk Crafts Movement and the stencil-dyed calendars of Keisuke Serizawa inspired him to embark on a career in textile dyeing in the late 1940s. In addition to stenciled and other dyed art textiles, he produces picture books, prints, and three-dimensional works. He taught at the Joshibi University of Art and Design from 1950 to 1991.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

Great start
Format: Kindle
I loved this book! It's funny but still deals with tough themes, like chronic illness, a serial killer on the loose, and a dash of self-harm. The guys are interesting and distinct, we don't know too much about them yet. It does end on a really terrible cliffhanger but on the bright side the next book is out and I believe the series is complete. I have enjoyed both of these authors separately and this is a great team up!
