KIN TSUGI - Bridging Generations and Traditions
In the rich tapestry of cultural exchange and design, the fusion of Japanese and Indigenous traditions emerges as a vibrant celebration. It's a harmonious blending that bridges generations, breathing new life into age-old practices.
Through shared artistry and thoughtful design, these cultures come together, not as a clash, but as a testament to the enduring spirit of creativity and the enduring legacy of traditions.
It's a testament to the power of collaboration to weave a vibrant tapestry where the threads of heritage and innovation intertwine, leaving a colourful legacy for generations to come.
This is my version of KIN TSUGI creation.
KIN TSUGI, originating in the 15th century, tells a tale of transforming precious pottery fragments into new art by adorning them with gold.
In the same spirit, I find beauty in the fusion of diverse cultures, nationalities, generations, and artistic forms.

Here, you see Charlie and my son wearing beautiful overdyed vintage kimonos. It's not the traditional path, but a fresh fusion of creativity.
