@gloss: Artist @ziyu7002 shows us the mastery behind Gyotaku which is a traditional Japanese art form that involves making prints from real fish. Originally developed in the mid-19th century as a way for fishermen to record their catches, it has evolved into a celebrated artistic practice. To create a Gyotaku print, ink or pigment is applied directly to the fish’s body, which is then pressed onto paper or fabric to capture its intricate details, including scales, fins, and textures. Artists may add additional touches, such as painting the eyes, to bring the image to life. Gyotaku combines elements of documentation, craftsmanship, and aesthetic expression, preserving both the beauty of marine life and the cultural heritage of Japan. This fish is usually cooked and consumed straight after the print has been made 🐟🤯 #fyp #foryou #japan #japanese #art #painting
