This exhibition will feature Kurume kasuri woven and dyed fabric, Amagi shibori, and a variety of blue pottery themed around two iconic shades of blue. These are the indigo blue color known as Japan Blue, which has been a symbol of Japan since ancient times, and the blue used as the emblem color of the World Aquatics Championships.
Visitors can experience the indigo dyeing process first-hand using raw indigo leaves.
The variety of tones are particular to Japan, and it is said that there are 48 different shades of indigo alone. We hope you will enjoy this delicate world of colors.
