Learn Suminagashi at Your Home

Suminagashi, Japanese for “floating ink” , is a traditional art form from the 12th century that reveals the mesmerizing, ever-changing nature of water. We will be creating a floating piece of art on the surface of the water and capturing the swirling, vermorphing moments as prints on coasters. You will gain a new understanding of fluid dynamics as we incorporate natural forces, such as breath and vibration, into our art to create visual harmony.
