Today’s episode is about sashiko mending. I had the great pleasure to talk with Jessica Marquez, author of Make + Mend.
Interview Notes:
-
- Emi Ito’s (Little Koto’s Closet) Article about Cultural Appropriation – “An Open Letter To White Makers & Designers Who Are Inspired By The Kimono And Japanese Culture”
- Sashi.co’s articles specifically about Sashiko and Cultural Appropriation
Cultural Appropriation in Sashiko
Why Do You Call It Sashiko?
Mindful Reading - This article was an interesting view on the subject, too.
- Please keep in mind that not everyone experiences this appropriation the same way, but all minority voices on the subject are valid. If you enter Emi’s space, be respectful.
