YOSHIOKA Sachio
|
|
His publications and research into the history of fabric dyeing have inspired him to reconstruct many mixtures and techniques. Numerous research trips have taken him the Silk Road, to India, Southeast Asia, to South America and to Europe.
Yoshioka remains a craftsman, designer, researcher and writer in one and all of his activities stimulate one another. Museums and fabric restorers seek his help and consultation.
In Japan, Yoshiokas workshop is regarded as the standard of excellence in fabric dying with plant dyes. His fabrics are put into use by private individuals, interior designers, as well as clothing designers
and tailors who use the exquisite fabrics for individual pieces of clothing and for the interiors of classical and modern Japanese spaces. |
