MOMOKA GOMI
Resident Artist
STUDIO C1
Momoka Gomi is a hand weaver/designer that uses traditional craft techniques, methods and aesthetics and brings them into modern design.
Momoka believes that fabric functions as a second skin in society. It is the physical material that is most essential to and closest to a human’s body, from birth to death. As your own skin which grows up and ages with you, the textiles she creates are designed to live with you, age with you, and stay with you for a lifetime. Her products are the precious pieces that hold your personal memories and story.
