A makimono is a long, horizontal scroll made of paper or silk that is meant to be unrolled from right to left and viewed section by section. Unlike framed paintings or hanging scrolls (kakemono), it is not meant for permanent display — it’s experienced intimately, held in the hands, and slowly revealed as the viewer unrolls it.
A makimono is a long, horizontal scroll made of paper or silk that is meant to be unrolled from right to left and viewed section by section. Unlike framed paintings or hanging scrolls (kakemono), it is not meant for permanent display — it’s experienced intimately, held in the hands, and slowly revealed as the viewer unrolls it.
The makimono format invites intimate, time-based engagement — unlike a single-frame painting, it’s an unfolding journey through image and text. It mirrors the rhythm of storytelling, meditation, and discovery.
