Sashiko Japanese Embroidery Workshop

The participants of this workshop will discover both the cultural meaning of sashiko and sustainability but also gain new insight into mending our brokenness or traumatic experiences by recreating the naked body garment together from recycled clothes. The participants need to bring their skin tone clothes to create their own naked garment or create using a piece of Japanese vintage cloth we provide to use as a patch to repair not only the garment but also the body and mind. This workshop allows participants to reclaim their slow moments, meditating and discerning vulnerability while they mend their garments to lead the holistic well-being of the planet.
