A large and impressive woven bamboo sculpture by Japanese bamboo artist Yamaguchi Ryuun (born 1940-) entitled "Black Wave". The piece was made in 2000 and originally purchased from Tai Modern, Santa Fe, New Mexico. Made from kurochiku (black bamboo) using free-hand irregular plaiting, bending and wrapping techniques, the piece takes an abstract shape that resembles wave. It is still a vessel form that can be used as a large scale ikebana. Signed underneath.
Yawaguchi Ryuub was born in Saga Prefecture on Kyushu Island and he works in Oita. He studied under Shono Shounsai in 1963. His work is known for its unique bold sculptural quality that departures from the more traditional bamboo weaving.
