A unique opportunity to see the works of Itchiku Kubota — a world-renowned specialist in the ancient art of fabric dyeing. Having started at the age of 20, Kubota became very interested in the art of tsujigahana after serving as a prisoner of war, and soon developed his own style and techniques. Although he did not have his own exhibition until the age of 60, he is now well known as a savior of an art once lost in the 17th century.
