My practice engages textiles as meditative structures - a space where repetition and reflection become expression. I work primarily with hand-stitching and weaving, drawing from traditions such as sashiko and double weave to explore the evocative potential of minimal forms.

Repetition is not only a method, but a way of being. Deeply drawn into Nietzsche’s notion of Eternal Recurrence, I am dedicated to living a life of perpetual, mindful repetitions. Through repetitive lines and subtle variations, I approach making as a form of contemplation - one that resists urgency and invites slowness. The quiet labor of hands becomes a way of marking time and attention, allowing grandeur to emerge from simple geometries.

I primarily use sashiko-inspired stitching to mend garments and textiles with repurposed materials. I describe my stitching as “sashiko-inspired” rather than simply calling it sashiko, as I practice it in a particular manner. I always use multiple strands of thread in my stitching to ensure the marks remain highly visible. I typically use the most basic one-up-one-down pattern and simplify traditional Japanese sashiko motifs, so that the stitching on the front and back leaves the same trace. My pursuit of sashiko-inspired stitching is to convey imperfect yet clean patterns of aesthetic values and pragmatic use.

I am drawn to plain weave - the most fundamental of weave structures. I am fascinated by those complex patterns that contain plain weave elements. What captivates me most is its simplicity, which holds the potential for profound expression. The wisdom of plain weave lies in its steady repetition; I am compelled by the idea of devoting time and care to execute a single, simple act with clarity and precision. Following this mindset, I am enthusiastic about weaving repetitive patterns beyond plain weave and revitalizing traditional structures through the use of new fiber materials. As someone committed to bridging the old and the new, I have been actively exploring the intersection of textiles and illuminated installation. 

Through meditative repetition, material selection, and the integration of light, my work seeks to honor both the traditions I assume and the possibilities I reimagine. I see textiles not only as a medium of construction, but as a quiet language - capable of holding memory, labor, and transformation. In continuing this journey, I remain committed to exploring how subtle gestures and enduring forms can speak to the present with patience and precision.
