HIROKO TAKAHASHI BIO DATA
Artist.
Born in 1977.
2006 foundation of the company, HIROCOLEDGE Co.,Ltd.
2008 Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music bestows her the title Dr. of Fine Arts.
Design-Characteristics: Unique combinations of circle and straight lines are hallmarks of her expression.
Her concept: Breaking peoples fixed ideas and provoking new ways of thinking. She is working on various projects such as “HIROCOLEDGE”, an experiment involving collaboration with craftsmen of many different skills.
Re-thinking the traditional Kimono in her own particular way has totally changed the perception of this classic dress. When Hiroko wears her kimonos she becomes “the concept”, or her own portrait, so to speak.
