POP-UP Solo Exhibition "The World of Indigo Dyeing Art" by MOTOHIRO AOKI

This exhibition presents sustainable artworks created by breathing new life into fragments of Boro textiles--indigo-dyed fabrics that have fulfilled their roles over many years within daily life, rooted in Japan's traditional culture.

Artist MOTOHIRO AOKI carefully selects each piece of these once-cherished fabrics, inheriting the history and memories embedded within them, and transforms them into contemporary expressions.

【Profile】

MOTOHIRO AOKI

After graduating from Bunka Fashion College, I gained about 10 years of experience in the apparel industry, working in product planning, design, and buying. Through this, I developed expertise in trend analysis, material selection, product development, and marketing, gaining a deep understanding of the entire process from product creation to reaching consumers.

Currently, I create artworks using indigo-dyed Boro fabric, incorporating elements of traditional craftsmanship and the culture of upcycling. My work challenges the idea of giving new value to discarded materials, transforming them into something meaningful. From interior decorations to contemporary art pieces, my creations embody both "beauty" and "sustainability".

Through my work, I strive to create new conversations and connections, allowing each piece to tell a special story to those who see or hold it. I also aim to share the beauty of Japanese traditional culture with the world, serving as a bridge between cultures.

I will continue to create art that connects people and objects, and I sincerely appreciate your support.
