Yuki Hidano

Yuki was born in Saitama Prefecture in 1994. After graduating with a major in Textiles from the Department of Industrial, Interior, and Craft Design at Musashino Art University in 2017, she worked as an Assistant Professor at Musashino Art University in the same department until 2022. She applies a unique perspective based on the knowledge and understanding of materials she has gained through various experiments to her work. Primarily using hand-weaving techniques, she draws upon primitive and traditional methods of production while at the same time devising innovative ways of structuring and composing the weave. This results in diverse forms that exhibit freedom and originality achievable only through manual craftsmanship, thus setting them apart from the mass-produced textiles created by machines.
