Sankayo (Fleur squelette) / サンカヨウ 2024 SS
I created this series by imagining the “Sankayo” flower.
Sankayo is a white flower that becomes transparent when wet
Its petals become transparent when it rains, it looks like it’s a little glass flower.
For this series, I used old materials like blown glass or handmade glass flowers.
These are rare materials that are no longer produced, because the manufacturers of the time kept their manufacturing method secret.
So I can’t know how this blown glass was made, but they are delicate glass beads that are empty inside.
The glass flowers are also handmade, they are meticulous and make this series very beautiful.
