Craft x Tech Special Lecture Series Vol. 3 “Yoichi Ochiai x Oitama Tsumugi”

2024.2.9

(Lecture)

Craft x Tech is a new initiative to develop innovative products & art pieces through collaborations between Japanese traditional crafts and international creators. The inaugural edition, 6 craft districts from Tohoku region – the Northeast part of Japan – will each be paired with one of the 6 participating creators, with the aim to identify innovative and novel approaches to creation using traditional Japanese crafts.

As part of this project, the participating creators and craftsmen are invited to hold a special lecture series. Our third lecture welcomed the renowned media artist Yoichi Ochiai and President of Nitta Textiles Arts Inc., Gentaro Nitta. Their great team collaboration could be felt throughout the lecture.
We also had the pleasure of being joined by Yuichi Taka, Director of HighChem Company Limited, one of our sponsors of the project. The discussion between all participants was truly inspiring!
