As part of a series of original artwork made for Nalata Nalata that expresses Mochizuki's notions of love, this one-of-a-kind piece transcribes a poem by Wei Yingwu that he had sent to a friend during a time of solitude. Using traditional tsutsugaki resist-dyeing, ink soaks through the fibers of washi paper to create the rich dark navy tones in this piece. It comes in an elegant white oak frame designed by the artist's wife that also holds a calligraphy of the poem in the back.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eView the full series \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nalatanalatasavings.com\/collections\/michiaki-mochizuki\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigner\/Maker \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtist: \u003c\/b\u003eMichiaki Mochizuki\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e16” (w) x 21.5” (l) or 40.6cm (w) x 54.6cm (l)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3.5 lb or 1.6 kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterials: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInk, Rice Paste, Washi Paper, White Oak Wood Frame, Off-White Matte, Museum Glass\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTsutsugaki resist-dye on washi paper\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreation year, 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAncient Chinese poem by Wei Yingwu is featured on the front of the artwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJapanese translation of the poem is transcribed in ink on washi paper and affixed to back of frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand signed by Michiaki Mochizuki on reverse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel with the artist name, title and creation date (17 May 2020) is affixed to back of frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoused in a white oak custom wood frame with UV filtering museum glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Michiaki Mochizuki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38301058138306,"sku":"","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0194\/5843\/products\/Michiaki_Mochizuki_Ride_on_a_Small_Boat_Painting_Featured_137bd83c-80ce-4c8f-af46-0f3923264a15.jpg?v=1613856126","url":"https:\/\/nalatanalatasavings.com\/products\/ride-on-a-small-boat-2020","provider":"Nalata Nalata","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
