In his Fragment of a Rainbow series, Fukumoto uses rich jewel tones to create vibrant, geometric compositions of overlapping stripes underneath a lattice structure. Fukumoto’s dyeing practices emphasize both the precision and fluidity of the medium, as seen in the contrast between the softly blended stripes and the rigidity of the overlaid pattern.
