Heroes of Suruga: Kyoichiro Washizu - a Japanese textile artist who uses tea in his creations

Come with us as we journey into the heart of Suruga in Shizuoka – Japan’s most important tea-growing region – and meet some of the shokunin (artisans) whose life and passion embody the rich culture and traditions of the region. In this episode of our HEROES OF SURUGA series, we visit Mr Kyoichiro Washizu, a master artisan whose exquisite and contemporary textile work incorporates discarded tea leaves in the dyeing process. We learn how he developed this sustainable craft, see demonstrations of the tea-dyeing and design processes themselves, and hear from one of his apprentices, whose own story demonstrates how Washizu-san continues to pass down his skills and knowledge to younger generations. In so doing, he weaves his unique artform into the very fabric of Suruga's rich cultural legacy. 💻 Find out more about Mr Washizu: https://www.ochazome-shizuoka-japan.com/ 🍵 Check out the experience here: https://www.visit-suruga.com/en/spot/... 👉 Follow him on Instagram:   / kyoichirowashizu   ✈️ Plan your custom trip to Suruga with us and try tea-dyeing yourself: https://arigatotravel.com/suruga-mult...
