After the MA.. 修士取得を終えて。


Just a few things I wanted to say...


So I finished my MA few months ago, with Distinction (!),
which had been an amazing experience.
Spending a whole year focusing on what I want to do, creating garments with the facility
we don't have in Bunka, living on my own in a beautiful old flat, in a small city of Nottingham-
everything was new to me. Hard at times, but really wonderful.
The result and the response of my work was great, couldn't be more happier.
And most of all, a great year of meeting amazing people and friends.
I think its a miracle that we all met coming from all over the world,
 during such a short period of time in our lives!!
Thank you to all my friends, family and teachers.
Thank you for all your support.

I'd also like to announce that my work is going to be shown at an exhibition in Nottingham!

CHEEKY STITCHES
Date: 21st-28th October 2011
Place: Corner House 2nd Floor Gallery Space

There will be a cat walk show on the opening day,
showing mine and other artists/designer's works.
Exhibition includes fashion/art/ceramics,etc.
For more information, please take a look at the
Cheeky Stitches website!


Being back in Japan feels unreal, a little uncomfortable, but I'll cope
since I have my friends and family close with me.
I truly miss the life I had in Nottingham & London though..
I hope the MA peeps are all well and look forward to seeing you at some point!:)


The next step in my life.. I will be launching a brand with a friend from Bunka!
We're still under preparation, but I will keep you updated.


Also, personally, I'm trying to search for beautiful places in Japan.
I'm in love with europe, so now I want to fall in love with Japan!
cos I've been living away from my home country for so many years..
So I'll randomly post images and notes on this as well.


Hello UK, good night Japan!


Some images to sum up my MA Collection...
Big thanks and love to my beautiful girl, Beccy.










イギリスで無事修士号をとり、日本に帰国して3週間近くが経ちました。
毎日毎日イギリスが恋しくて仕方ないです。帰ってきたらみんなが
立派に働いていたり、成長していたりして、なんだか寂しくもあります。
まだ心にぽっかり穴があいてる部分があります。
が、
こっちでの生活も
少しずつ積み上げて行きたいです。わずかだけど、
確かにスタートしているので、わくわくしています。
私の性格上、過去は振り返るけど、それは
今につながっているので、前は向いています。
ノッティンガムとロンドンでの生活は、確実に今の私につなげてくれました。
なのでしっかりと伸び続けていきたいです。
