SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Special Workshop With Christina Kim
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, January 8th at 11:30AM\, please join us at Arcana: Books on the Arts for a special workshop with Christina Kim to learn to make yo-yo puffs! \nA yo-yo puff is a circle of fabric gathered around its edges into a “puff” used for embellishing quilts and clothing. First\, a circle is drawn on a piece of cloth\, cut out\, and stitched with thread around the outside of the folded edge while turning a tiny hem as you go. The thread is pulled\, gathering the fabric into a puff\, then knotted. A traditional form of recycling thought to date back centuries\, yo-yo or Suffolk puffs\, as they are sometimes called in England\, are best known in the United States for their use in Depression-era quilting practice. \nChristina attempted her first yo-yo puffs creation\, a coverlet\, in high school by following instructions in an issue of Seventeen magazine. For a project in 2013 evoking the transformation of winter to spring\, 10\,000 puffs dip-dyed and hand-painted in subtle gradients of sky\, snow\, and cherry blossom colors were made for an 18 window installation in Tokyo. The technique was incorporated into the dosa Traveler 2013 collection. \n$55.00 includes materials and a rare small-group workshop with Christina Kim. \nBook your place in advance (by calling Whitney at 310-458-1499 or writing to books@arcanabooks.com)\, or “at the door” on Sunday morning.

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts a Special Installation With Christina Kim
DESCRIPTION:Free\nPlease join Arcana: Books on the Arts on Friday\, December 16th from 6 to 8PM\, to celebrate Christina Kim’s publication of dosa glossary along with a special month-long installation inside their store. \nChristina Kim is a Los Angeles-based designer who is the co-founder of dosa. Textiles play a central role in her design practice\, which ranges from housewares and clothing to temporary installations and architectural projects. This year\, she has created a public art piece for the APAP5 art triennial in Anyang\, Korea\, a four-month installation at the Museo Textil de Oaxaca in Mexico\, and collaborated with architect Peter Zumthor for the Venice Architecture Biennale. Her work is currently on display as part of the three-person “Scraps: Fashion\, Textiles and Creative Reuse” exhibition at New York’s  Cooper Hewitt\, Smithsonian Design Museum. \ndosa glossary is a beautiful one hundred and eight page gazette designed by Christina with Green Dragon Office of Los Angeles and printed by Sankei Shinbun in Tokyo. With one hundred and four entries\, it is a “collection of techniques\, textiles\, people and organizations involved with dosa\, past and present. Information is based on our notes from the field – insights gained working side by side with artisans\, knowledge shared with us firsthand and reference material from books picked up along our travels.” \nChristina will sign this limited edition piece at Arcana the night of the opening.  Her accompanying site-specific installation is a visual and sometimes tactile reflection of the entries and concepts illustrated in the glossary that will be a magical and playful environment in which to discover dosa from a to z and the creative connections\, both carefully considered and wondrously serendipitous\, that it inspires.
