Here, I would like to share another side of Sustainability - Cultural Sustainability. The Japanese word "Sashiko'' has gained its popularity as a Japanese way to "recycle/mend" the fabric. The description introduced in English for Sashiko is not wrong at all, but insufficient due to translation, or sometimes intentional filtration of cultural perspective. By cherry-picking the word for a trend in textile sustainability, the cultural sustainability of Sashiko may be unbalanced, or even destroyed. Sashiko is, indeed, a hand-stitching practice to appreciate the fabric. I am happy that Sashiko is playing the role of advocating Sustainable Fashion. I just want the world to know, or even acknowledge, that the Sashiko is more than what is introduced today in English. You are here to care for the Sustainability. Your acknowledgment can protect a culture from Cultural Filtration for someone's profit. I am here to share my wisdom to keep "our Sashiko" Sustainable. Written by Atsushi Futatsuya See less
