Lena Okamoto Furniture

Lena Okamoto is a Tokyo-based textile artist who breathes new life into antique and vintage kimonos through contemporary textile art "ikasu".

Drawing on a background in Japanese cultural studies and a master’s degree from the University of Tokyo, as well as her certification as a Kimono Meister, her practice is grounded in deep cultural fluency, personal introspection, and a quiet reverence for impermanence.

Through the act of deconstructing and reimagining kimono textiles, Lena explores memory, time, and transformation, allowing inherited materials to speak anew within a contemporary context.
