Hanna-Yokozawa Farquharson

When I chose to work with indigo, it was to draw on the culture I knew. I worked with hand dyed fabric like a “BORO” ( worn or used fabric). This celebrated the work and art of people who wasted nothing. The piece became for me a crossroads. I had to choose between following the culture I knew or taking the other path of building upon that culture while totally immersing in my adopted culture and new reality. This was a significant point of understanding myself as a person and an artist.
