About

Considered Objects began in 2020, after I inherited my grandmother’s collection of kimonos. Sitting down to unpick the original seams thread by thread became a way to connect with her memory and revisit my roots.

Taking a kimono apart is slow, and it taught me how it was made. Every panel is cut from a single bolt of cloth, and the stitches show where it was sewn, worn, and mended over time.

Working so closely with these garments shifted my perspective. I began to see the work as preservation: a way to keep these textiles, and the lives they carried, from disappearing.

Today, I continue to work with antique and vintage kimonos, taking them apart and reshaping the silk into new pieces so the cloth can continue to be worn and lived in.

What began as reworking silk by hand has grown into a dedicated textile practice in New York City. In my studio, I also work with reclaimed textiles and deadstock fabrics to make one-of-one garments, accessories, and textile works. 

I believe textiles carry a quiet sense of place, so I preserve each material’s original details through hand reconstruction and small-scale production.

My work is rooted in hand-stitching, visible repair, and deliberate experimentation, and each fabric guides the outcome. I leave the traces of the process visible, from raw edges to original kimono seams that reveal themselves over time. Materials are limited, and I transform them slowly in my studio. Works are released as one-of-one pieces or made through custom commission.

You can find a curated selection through our stockists, with most works available directly from the online shop.
