Freestyle weave

Chinami Mori's 93 years old mother Emiko is regularly photographed in a burst of color, looking as happy as glam, while modeling her granddaughter's bright weaving.

Chinami embraces a Japanese freestyle weaving technique called Saori, which allows her to mix and match colored yarn, string and fabric.

"There are no rules" explaines the Japanese artist, "I can weave as freely and as colorful as I want". And no one wears (or personifies) her work better than Emiko.
