NAKASONE, Michiko.
Miyako Jofu
Born in Ishigaki Island, Okinawa in 1959, Nakasone studied Weaving and Kasuri in the Okinawa Traditional Crafts institute on the main island of Okinawa from 1979. Nakasone then moved to Miyako Island, where her parents were originally from and set up an independent work shop where she has been making Miyako Jofu for over 35 years.
One of the difficulties in making Miyako Jofu is procuring the thread, as it is an extremely tedious task. A local network of women was built to facilitate the production of thread, supporting makers like Nakasone to continue weaving.
Miyako Jofu is usually produced using just plain weave, but due to her knowledge in weaving gained while on the main island in Okinawa, Nakasone adopts the twill weave, and the Hana-ori weave into her work. In recent years she had begun introducing more and more colors into her kimono and obi, keeping the freshness and the feeling of modernity in her work.
