Hiroto Ikebe showcases how discarded silk cocoon waste can be repurposed into fabrics for clothing, highlighting its leather-like properties and sustainability.
The materials include raw silk, kibiso, and degara cocoons—each originally deemed unsuitable for mass production but reworked through innovative techniques.
Ikebe’s exhibition aims to shed light on modern sericulture practices, promoting sustainability and reducing waste by transforming silk remnants into functional textiles.
Through 'COCOON ANATOMY', Ikebe presents a unique approach to fabric design, merging artistry with environmental responsibility, while inviting exploration of silk's untapped potential.
