The other day, Toki Hata, an exhibiting artist at Kogei Art KYOTO, was interviewed by the French online newspaper Le Petit Journal.
Le Petit Journal is a daily news site in French for French-speaking people living in and outside France. It publishes an international edition and 74 regional editions.
Le Petit Journal TOKYO first sent an e-mail to Kogei Art KYOTO requesting an interview with a kogei artist, which was coordinated through several e-mail exchanges.
On the interview day, Ms. Valentine Detournay from Le Petit Journal TOKYO visited Ms. Hata’s studio.
The interview lasted about an hour and began with questions about the history and manufacturing process of kimono, followed by Ms. Hata’s thoughts on her work, her approach to her job, and her thoughts for the future.
