Since the day he knew about Boro, he could not stop collecting and creating works with it, because he was so into the rich layers and textures of this kind of textiles.

Ray believes there’s long everlasting soul in those ancient pieces of art, and he hopes to transform them into more possibilities of modern fashion.
Mia Cheung (Taiwan)
Fast fashion focuses on speed and low costs in order to deliver new collection monthly (or sometimes weekly) for boosting sales. Textile waste is an unintended consequence of fast fashion, as more people buy more clothes and don’t keep them as long as they used to. As a social enterprise, A Glass of Time Studios operate to provide disadvantaged people in rural areas with work and training through the manufacture of upcycled materials and products. We are also a upcycling fashion design studio, alongside regular events, workshops and trainings.
Yumiko Fukayama (Japan)
Long time ago (-1950) , fabric was very valuable especially in the north side of Japan. So old people used fabric carefully. They repaired, mended and remade other things again and again. BOROnote is a project to inform about Japanese vintage fabric called <BORO>, vintage work wear <NORAGI & HANTEN>. And also to tell Japanese ordinary people's story, rustic culture and craftwork.
