Thirty years ago, bamboo artist Kibe Seiho was recovering from a broken leg when he realized that he wanted to begin a career that allowed him to work with his hands. He quit his job and enrolled in the Oita Prefectural Bamboo Craft and Training Center in Japan. Ten years ago, he had his first solo show in the United States at TAI Gallery in Santa Fe. Now, he is returning to show his new body of work at TAI Modern’s exhibition "Kibe Seiho," in which the artist will showcase his sensitivity to balance and proportion and his mastery of traditional bamboo basket-making techniques.
