Hagoromo is an in-progress project that began in early 2021. Named after a Japanese mythological robe that allows celestial beings to travel between the spiritual and physical realms, the central theme of the project is to explore the ephemerality of being. Twelve vintage kimonos, handcrafted using traditional techniques from all over Japan, will be painted and manipulated by Yuka Uehara in order to explore the unrepeatable nature of the moment or ichigo ichie.
