Paper took center stage at the Lewis Center for the Arts in March through a series of events including performances of Reginald Dwayne Betts’ Felon: An American Washi Tale and Kyoko Ibe’s companion Washitales exhibition. Through a papermaking workshop where they worked alongside Ibe, visual arts lecturer Daniel Heyman and master papermaker Hiro Odaira, visual arts students learned traditional techniques, made their own washi paper, and observed Ibe’s special technique for producing her characteristically colorful, textural paper.
