Toki Hata

Obsession

I drew butterflies happily flying in search of flowers. I used one of the best techniques in dyeing–feathering– for the background, and adjusting for the background color, I used pink for the butterflies on the beige background and dyed colorful butterflies on the pink background.

Toki Hata

Toki Hata was born as the second daughter of Noboru Hata and the granddaughter of Living National Treasure Tokio Hata. As the third generation Hata, she became a dyeing artist after graduating from the Kyoto City University of Arts. Her semi-formal Yuzen dyed silk kimonos are drawn in detail as pure expressions of beauty that concentrate the sense of beauty of Hata Yuzen.

Japanese kimono artists have used hand-drawn Yuzen silk dyeing since the Edo Period, but modern artists like me do not rely on classical designs, but rather work from our own sketches to develop new designs that become the patterns on our kimonos.
