Shibari
by Kateřina Handlová
THE SECRET LANGUAGE
OF ROPE-KNOTS
Shibari is not simply the technique of tying objects with ropes,
but a method of communication within hidden systems of lines
and loops. In Japanese it’s called Kinbaku: the beauty of tight
binding. This sophisticated collection places crystal centerpieces
amidst the knots to draw our attention and create variable
compositions. Thanks to BOMMA’s daring design, Shibari may
be considered a work of art, whether as a stand-alone piece or
in a grouping that resembles a sculpture.
