【My Me】サク梵字Choker KOBINAI

【Message】

今回の旅で感じた事。それは愛だけでなく、自然と自分との繋がり、衝撃、無力感、痛みなど、さまざまな複雑な感情が絡み合ったものになった。

貧富の差から生じるナイフのような痛みを感じる瞬間もあった。

この感覚を受けて、今回はフェアトレードで購入したオールドサリーを使った洋服を製作に挑戦した。さらに、複雑な感情や思いを表現し、KOBINAIの洋服製作で出た残布とオールドサリーを組み合わせたアイテムも作成した。

その１つがこの作品だ。

このコレクションを通して様々な繋がりを感じてくれたら嬉しい。

What I felt on this trip. It was not only love, but also the connection between myself and nature, shock, helplessness, pain, and many other complex emotions.

There were moments when I felt the knife-like pain that comes from the gap between rich and poor.

This sensation inspired me to try my hand at making clothes using old saris purchased through fair trade. In addition, to express her complex emotions and thoughts, she also created items combining old saris and leftover fabric from the production of KOBINAI’s clothes.

One such item is this one.

I would be happy if you feel various connections through this collection.

I would also be happy if you could have a chance to learn about the background of the products and the stories of the producers.
It may be a small activity, but I want to spread what I feel and know as much as possible. If we can share and remember important things together, I believe that our “thoughts” and activities will spread even further.

There are many things in the world that we do not know, and many worlds that we do not know. Not only in the world, but also in Japan.
But we have only one wish. World peace and the elimination of the gap between the rich and the poor.
The world is not equal. That is why we need to think. We need to act.
