Hi and thank you for your interest.

I hope that the process inspires creativity and provokes curiosity.

Louise has been experimenting and learning through processes and is delighted to share her findings.

Whilst experimenting with the concepts of the Japanese art of Momigami, Louise discovered several unique applications facilitated by the momigami process.

Louise has been substituting the traditional use of Konnyaku starch to seal the mulberry paper used in the momigami process with various possibilities, including cellulose powder, acrylic binder and acrylic paints.

In this video, Louise shows how the addition of a sealant followed by the folding and creasing technique used in momigami will actually split the plies of 220 gsm cartridge paper.

Louise will be setting up an Art Supplies Page on her website:-louisejannetta.co.uk so that you can purchase this type of paper to try the technique for yourself.
Thank you for watching, and all the best.
