SILK ART

Silk art refers to a range of artistic practices that use silk fabric as both canvas and material, including silk painting, embroidery, dyeing, and printmaking. Celebrated for its vibrant colors, delicate textures, and elegant finish, silk art is both a luxury medium and a timeless form of expression.

Rooted in ancient traditions across Asia, silk art has flourished in many cultures. Chinese silk art is renowned for its historic embroidery and scroll painting; Japanese silk art features intricate dyeing techniques like Yuzen and stencil work; and Vietnamese silk art is celebrated for expressive silk paintings known as Tranh lụa.

Today, these rich traditions continue to inspire contemporary artists and designers worldwide—bridging heritage and innovation in fashion, home décor, and fine art.
