Fine feminine
garment from the T'ang dynasty
Inspired by a Haiku created by Ryokan who
compared the beauty of red autumn leaves
to the refined robes
worn by some women of the T'ang dynasty.

luxurious and erotic aspects of the T'ang dynasty

"When one knows that
emptiness is filled with Ki, one realizes that nothingness
doesn't existe."

Neither

"Sit with your back strait
and then remain comfortable,

of red-gold on brown-red-wood,
evoking za-zen meditation by the spacing of the text.
