Drift foil writer exhibited at the exhibition "Manufacturing that leads to the future"Kohei MurataIt is an introduction.
We apply the technology of drag foil, which is the material of Nishijin weave, and are trying to create different fields such as art works.
The foil has a completely different expression depending on the light source and the viewing angle, and the effect of light and time can be felt.
Even if the material changes and the technology evolves, the thoughts of the predecessors continue to dwell with the technologies that have been handed down in the production process, which is the essence of crafts.

KOHEI MURATA
Creating a New Tradition with Nishijin-Ori Foil
I believe that we foil makers should pass down tradition as well as the techniques of the craft. Foil has a completely different expression depending on the light source and the viewing angle, allowing us to feel the effects of light and the value created by time. I believe the essence of the craft, the process handed down to us by our predecessors, remains even if materials change and the technology evolves. My challenge for now is to convey the charm of Nishijin-ori while preserving kimono culture. I hope this becomes a New Tradition that Leads to the Revitalization of The Entire Industry.
