The exhibition features textiles and practical textile products all created and designed by Textite Studio Tate + Yoko.

A weaving studio established by four graduates of the Okinawa University of Arts is conducting its first Weaving Studio Tate + Yoko Exhibition at the Nishimui Bijutsu art gallery.

Admission is free to the exhibition, which runs through December 30^th.  The four artisans graduated from university in 2010 and began fine tuning their craftsmanship by weaving.  Individuality is common, as the four take advantage of the varied features of Okinawa textiles.

The exhibition is more than simply an exhibition; it’s also a sale of traditional textile products of Okinawa.  The four have been creating products that suit the lifestyle of modern times.  Nishimui Bijutsu hosts the exhibition to focus on artists and craftsmen of Okinawa Prefecture, supporting traditional culture and customs.

The venue of the exhibition is Art Gallery Nishimui Bijutsu in Kochinda.
