Momoko.NaturalColourmaker

​

In my nature atelier, I craft wild colour objects of local sheep wool and botanical inks on paper, with hues derived from freshly foraged plants and dried botanical ingredients. My work enhances and frames a more natural experience in both public spaces and private settings.

As a natural colourmaker, I collaborate closely with the breathtaking and powerful essence of nature. My current focus springs from my early love for color and the outdoors, alongside my experience as a colorist. In that role, I designed trend colour lines for the global creative paper industry, creating these by hand for large-scale production, sold worldwide. I also developed new paper types, innovative collections, and products, crafting visions and strategies for major companies and institutions.

During a business trip to Japan to present my new paper types and colour ranges, my business associate Ouchi-San in Osaka affectionately nicknamed me Momoko-san, meaning "peach"—soft on the outside, with a spirited core. Now, Momoko is the name under which I create freely.
