Wrapping
For a very long time in Japan, wrapping an object has been a way of showing that it is valued. One emblem of Japanese wrapping culture is the furoshiki, a kind of traditional cloth wrap that was used to bundle all sorts of objects. These wraps not only made things easier to carry, but also served as gorgeous decoration. This time our guest is Keiko Hirano, who will talk about the beauty of Japanese wrapping designs. Wrapping offers some deep insights into unwrapping the Japanese way of life.
