As Shindo sorted through these simple pieces, my eye kept straying to a large textile hanging behind him. Two side panels of deep blue, loosely woven Indonesian fabric flanked a central cotton panel with a white “waterfall” lightly streaked with blue, “pouring” down the middle. Around it he had arranged balls wrapped with thread that had been dipped in the dye vat, so that some parts were white and some blue. It was a striking contemporary assemblage.
