Katagami is a Japanese technique of hand cutting stencils traditionally using a washi based stencil paper. The stencils can be used to print with a resist onto fabric or paper as well as printing using pigments directly through the stencil. On this workshop we will look at traditional Japanese Katagami stencils as inspiration, discussing the different techniques of stencil cutting before planning out your own small design and cutting it out with a scalpel.
