This one-of-a-kind collaboration beautifully demonstrates the enduring relationship between Kyoto’s craftsmanship and Jingwen’s artistry.

At the heart of Arashiyama is Yusai-sensei’s dyeing workshop, Yusai-Tei, where he rediscovered the art of Korozen, a color changing dye, born from the water of Arashiyama. This water, renowned for its purity and unique mineral composition, is not only the foundation of his craft but also the soul of Kyoto’s artistry. It drives every aspect of the city’s craftsmanship, from the vibrant hues of Yusai-sensei’s dyes to the delicate flavors of kaiseki cuisine.
Jingwen’s time in Yusai-Tei not only deepened her understanding of Yusai-sensei’s craft but also allowed her to channel its essence into an artisanal lamp that speaks to the timelessness of Kyoto’s water and light.mThis project is a testament to the power of collaboration and the enduring legacy of craftsmanship, reminding us all of the healing and hope that art can bring to those who create it—and those who experience it.
