About Kokoro crafts
Born in Tochigi, Japan, Kokoro has always been passionate about exploring the intersection of beauty and functionality through craft.
After relocating to Boston and graduating from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, she honed her skills in chair caning and furniture restoration at The Caning Shoppe and RARE Restoration.
Later, in Western Massachusetts, Kokoro explored functional arts through weaving with locally-sourced plants and reclaimed materials.
She finds a deep sense of meaning and purpose in bringing new life to old objects through the art of restoration.
