このプロジェクトでは今や希少価値となった高価な国産絹糸などの工業的には利用されない原材料に着目し、有効利用をしようと考え、このプロジェクトでは世界遺産である富岡製糸場内体験座繰り生糸やキビソ、でがら繭などあらゆる副蚕糸の材料を用いた革の代替製品の開発に取り組んでいます。
私たちは廃棄素材から日本の風土に根付いた染織技法を用いて新たなマテリアルができるまでの生産工程を、ただ単に環境への負荷を減らすものではなく、地域の周辺環境に対してポジティブな影響をもたらすリジェネラティブ(再生的)なものへと昇華させる取り組みを目指しています。
This project focuses on raw materials that are not used industrially, such as expensive domestic silk thread, which is now a scarce commodity, and aims to make effective use of them. The project is working on the development of alternative products to leather using all kinds of secondary silk materials such as raw silk, kibiso and degara cocoons.
Our goal is not only to reduce the environmental impact of the production process from waste materials to new materials using dyeing and weaving techniques rooted in the Japanese climate, but also to make it a regenerative process that has a positive impact on the local environment.
