As an artist with a background in Japanese traditional craft, dyeing, weaving and other handicraft techniques, Hiroko Takahashi uses kimono as an expressive medium for her art, putting a new spin on the traditional garment. In this presentation, Takahashi will present her innovative style of kimono production which combines traditional practices with original, unconventional designs comprised of geometric patterns that are unique to her work and are created from using only lines and circles.

Presented in partnership with the Japan Foundation of Los Angeles and the Japan-America Society of Oregon.
