Tokyo Mizuhiki is a creative Mizuhiki brand born in Meguro, Tokyo. I am working hard on my production activities based on the concept of "Always keep my heart pumping." Mizuhiki work, a traditional Japanese craft, has a history of decorating wedding ceremonies and other events. Emi Nakamura, a Tokyo Mizuhiki artist, takes advantage of the elegance of Mizuhiki while creating playful creations by combining new techniques and various materials. Having Tokyo Mizuhiki items around you makes your everyday life more colorful and fun. We work with such thoughts in mind.

Emi Nakamura (TOKYO MIZUHIKI)
.
Born in Akita Prefecture in 1983. Creative mizuhiki artist. In 2017, I started creative mizuhiki activities using my experience in making art displays. In addition to installations at various locations in Tokyo, in recent years he has created a table runner with a total length of over 24 meters using mizuhiki for the G7 Hiroshima Summit 2023. In addition to accessories, they also produce large-scale works such as lighting shades and partitions. In 2020, we launched "TOKYO MIZUHIKI", and while taking advantage of the elegance of mizuhiki, we strive to create playful creations by combining new methods and various materials, "to make everyday life somehow more colorful and fun." We work with this thought in mind. By actively collaborating with players such as artists, craftsmen, and factories, he pursues the possibilities of mizuhiki expression. Recently, he has announced ``upcycled mizuhiki,'' an initiative that takes into consideration the natural environment, and is also working on dyeing mizuhiki using discarded vegetables.
