Embroidery Artist
Profile of Kanako Goh

Born in Oga city, Akita. Moved to Kyoto after married.

In 1978, in the rag trade where her sister was involved, she noticed that a large quantity of threads that were out-of-specification were abundant.

It came to her mind to utilize them for embroidery.

She thought of what she should do embroidery for.

And she decided to express, by using needles and threads, the sceneries of “The Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido” by Hiroshige Utagawa, which she always was attracted to its unique expression.
