Renowned textile artist, Akiko Ike, from Niigata, Japan. Ike is the owner of the Niigata Ginka Gallery and Shop. At the age of sixty, she began creating her stitched pieces, using thin, worn out (boro) indigo-dyed nappies, and old work clothes. Giving these and other old textiles, such as worn mosquito nets, advertising banners, and wrapping cloths, new life by stitching with strong new thread, she has developed a distinctive personal style knows as Boro Chiku Chiku. Her works have been featured in many venues throughout Japan since 2006. Additionally, she has taught her Chiku Chiku workshops in Japan as well as France, the United States and Australia.
