MoMA Exclusive: Designed by Keiji Otani and hand-printed in Japan, the oversized dot pattern on this cotton scarf is inspired by Minimalist art. Measuring 76.71l x 41.73”w, this very large scarf offers a wide variety of ways to wear it, from gathered and wrapped around your neck
The Keiji Otani Dot Large Cotton Scarf can be hand washed in cold water (lay flat to dry) or dry cleaned.
Otani, a Japanese textile designer who graduated with an MA in Constructed Textiles from London's Royal College of Art, has work in MoMA's collection. The design, Brickyard (1997), is a knitted-nylon fabric that was inspired by stacks of freshly fired bricks. The tiny "bricks" remain in relief even when the cloth is stretched. This textile was featured in MoMA's 1998 exhibition Structure and Surface: Contemporary Japanese Textiles.
