about

Japanese Embroidery Artist
刺繍家　イプノット

The name ipnot comes from the nickname I have had since childhood.
I have spent my childhood surrounded by very creative and crafty people
who have inspired me.
I was drawn to embroidery because my grandmother used to do embroidery
and made it look very relaxing and enjoyable.
So I tried it and I enjoyed it myself. Since then,
I started my own projects and it does not feel like work at all. Rather,
it feels like like hobby since I am having fun.

I discovered myself that the French knot stitch can be done by wrapping thread
around the needle.
I find this type of stitching to be a lot of fun to do and it is my favorite type of stitch.
I have chosen the French knot stitch to represent my stitching style.
I choose a thread of my own preference from about 500 different-colored
embroidery threads.
As in the art of stipple painting,
I use my needle like a paint brush and I stitch one knot at a time.

ipnot(イプノット)という名は幼い頃からの愛称より。

当たり前のように物をつくり、直し

絵を描き手芸を楽しむ人に囲まれて過ごした幼少期。

刺繍をする祖母の影響で自然と刺繍に惹かれるようになる。

独学で学ぶうちに針に糸を巻き付ける縫い方の

フレンチノット（French Knot）に魅せられ現在の作風へと繋がる。

約５００色ある刺繍糸から自由に糸を選び

画くように様々な刺繍の世界を表現している。
