visvim Is Helping to Preserve This Traditional Japanese Art Form
This time it’s Jibara-Shiki.
visvim has unveiled its latest video, this time showcasing the brand supporting and paying tribute to another traditional Japanese art form — Jibari-Shiki lantern craftsmanship. The label has long been known for its commitment to preserving traditional techniques, and this marks the latest chapter in a series of efforts. Back at visvim’s recent Paris Fashion Week showroom, the brand decorated the space with a number of customised paper lamps — called chocin — and now the new visuals are a testament to the painstaking process involved in the making of one.
Once you’ve watched the video above you can see visvim®’s last dissertation, focused on the history of the traditional Japanese workwear fabric Yanai-Jima.
