The book brings together works, reflections, and experiences from Harnik's time of living and working in Tokyo. Its starting point was her practical PhD that she completed in 2022 at Tama Art University in Tokyo. This research explores practices of repetition and disruption, and the perception of time through material. She examined the intercultural aspect through a study of the color blue: the Japanese indigo and tekhelet in Jewish culture.
As an artist working in the medium of textile, the practicing of traditional techniques has been a way of opening a window into learning about Japanese culture. Through the book, she wish to offer a glimpse into Japanese culture from a western perspective, as well as into her own creative processes.
