What is Kozo Bark Fiber?

Cooked Kozo
Jill Powers’ primary art medium is a remarkably ancient and modern material - the inner bark of a tree in the paper Mulberry family, grown traditionally and sustainably in Asian countries for making high quality translucent art paper. Instead of making paper, Jill prepares the steamed raw bark fiber traditionally, and then creates contemporary castings and sculptural art. Kozo has a beautiful webbed inner structure, and is very strong and durable.
