Kyoto has long been home to numerous textile artists, whose exceptional designs are founded on dyeing and weaving techniques that have been cultivated over many years. Since the modern era, a more innovative approach to dyeing and weaving was sought, as seen in the handwoven brocades of Yamaga Seika and Nakamura Hosei, who express rich textures by weaving together various materials, as well as the fiber art movement that gained popularity from the late 1960s onwards. This exhibition introduces the textile art of Kyoto from the 1930s to the present, incorporating recent acquisitions while focusing on techniques, choices of materials, and distinctive forms of expression. <\/p>\n
