Behind the Design

The Creative Works Print (CWP) series began with a question: what happens when printmaking techniques borrowed from packaging and commercial production are applied to fine art? TOUCH & FLOW partnered with Kanae Kouno, a painter and illustrator based in Hayama, Kanagawa, whose work draws on the natural world around her, plants, birds, and quiet moments, rendered through ink drawing, scratch techniques, and collage without preliminary sketches.

The four posters in this set each start as a digital print on Airasu paper, then receive a layer of transparent raised resin and either gold or copper foil stamping applied by hand. The foil on "Owl (Fukurou)" is copper, giving the nocturnal scene a cooler, more restrained finish, while the other three designs use gold foil. The teak wood frames are sourced from northern Thailand and can hold the acrylic panel or display the poster directly, so the texture of the surface remains accessible to the touch.

Each design carries a short text written by Kouno herself. "Bird on blue flower" imagines happiness hidden in the drift of yellow pollen. "Merry-go-round" sets wooden horses spinning in a blue night, carrying the feeling of childhood anticipation. "Owl" places a sharp-eyed bird in the cool silence of a forest lit by moonlight. "Bottle" holds a bottle sunk in deep blue, its floral scent a faint outline of memory. The writing and the images were conceived together, not as captions but as two surfaces of the same thought.

With only 300 numbered copies of each design in existence, the series sits at the boundary between mass production and limited craft object.

Four limited-edition A3 art posters from painter and illustrator Kanae Kouno, produced in collaboration with TOUCH & FLOW. Each piece layers gold or copper foil stamping and transparent raised resin over a digital print, creating texture you can actually feel. Every poster is hand-signed and numbered in an edition of 300, and comes with a certificate of authenticity in a natural teak wood frame.
