CHIYOKO MYOSE | Japan/United States​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
We had the pleasure of collaborating with Chiyoko in person at our studio as she lives (relatively) close in Wichita, Kansas. We were touched by her intentionality in combining traditional kimono fabric with our felted fiber, creating chickens that artfully express the cultural hybridity she experiences every day as a Japanese American woman. Learning more about this traditional style of dress was fascinating. Thank you for sharing this experience with us, Chiyoko. - Sally ​​​​​​​​
