The Vessel of Tradition

“伝統という器の再構築”

伝統とは、過去を保存するものではない。伝統とは人々の想い、願い、創造や思想を受け止め培う器であり、絶えず進化と変化を繰り返すという解釈。dyedaraは草木染めという伝統技法を通して、その「器」を再解釈と再構築を繰り返して新たな物作りをしていく。

Tradition is not something that merely preserves the past. We see tradition as a vessel that receives and nurtures people's thoughts, wishes, creativity and ideas, one that is constantly evolving and changing. Through the traditional technique of plant dyeing, dyedara continually reinterprets and reconstructs that “vessel” to create new things.
