    Vickie Meguire draws inspiration in the rich decorative traditions of Japan and the high-tech world of computer graphics to create finely detailed paper kimonos that evoke and negate the presence of a body. Meguire's finely-detailed paper kimonos simultaneously evoke and negate the presence of a body. Combining high-tech and handmade, the artist designs the kimonos’ richly patterned surfaces on the computer, then hand-stitches and glues the prints to form life-size paper garments. Viewed in installation form, the kimonos float over Zen-inspired sand and rock gardens. The richly-detailed kimonos, combined with the spare aesthetic of the rock gardens, creates a sensuous, yet serene, viewing experience.
