Directed by Kasumi Hourai, one of the few female bakushi, this photo book focuses on intense rope techniques and the performative beauty of restraint.
Huorai, active since the 1990s and respected for her refined style, bridges traditional Japanese aesthetics (wa and miyabi) with a modern kinbaku sensibility.

A beautifully produced contemporary kinbaku volume.
