These hanging scrolls or ‘kakejiku’ are a Japanese form of art of creating a beautiful display of images, poetry or calligraphy. In the West, these scrolls are mostly associated with tea ceremonies, but kakejiku were mainly found in a special room at a traditional Japanese home. This room was especially build to connect daily life and art; an original philosophical thought that is not practised anywhere else!
