An accordion book with a quote from the Book of Five Rings written in 1645 by Musashi Miyamoto, a renowned swordsman and philosopher. In this work, I tried to express the intensity of Kendo practice through mark-making and expressive writing. Indigo dye was used as it is the colour for dyeing Kendo armour and garments.
