この動画は色ラグを作った過程を表しています。これらはすべて手作りで作成し、完成までに約4ヶ月ほどかかりました。このラグを作成した目的は知識と美学を組み合わせて、視覚的に実用的できれいな物を作りたかったからです。コンセプトは家にあるこのラグを毎日使うことにより、意識せずに少しずつ言葉を覚えられるようになります。平仮名を選んだ理由は日本語を習い始めた人が初めに習う文字だからです。丸みを帯びた形もラグにぴったりだと思います。
This is a process video of how I made my Iro rug. It was fully handmade and took around 4 months to complete. The purpose of this rug is to incorporate information and aesthetic together, to make something both visually pleasing and practical. The concept is to have this rug in your home and look at it each day and in doing so you will gradually become able to understand it, having unconsciously learnt the words from seeing it so often. I chose Hiragana because it is usually the first alphabet you learn. Moreover, I like the rounded shapes and feel that they suit the form of a rug.
