At the gallery "Gallery Yaesu Tokyo" in the Yaesu Underground Shopping Center, "Kurashiki Vegetable Dyeing Exhibition-Clothing, Food, Gen-" is being held.
I am impressed that "~ Clothing, food, also, source ~" is a wonderful subtitle instead of "medicine food source".
When you enter the gallery, you will find women's clothes in the center of the venue, and dodon and onion mountains at their feet.
It's surprising that this kind of taste comes out of the onion skin.
We asked Yuriko Okubo, the representative of Kurashiki Vegetable Dyeing Research Institute.
Mr. Okubo uses vegetables grown in-house in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture as dyes, uses natural material fabrics, and makes specialty products by hand dyeing.
The works on display are attractive because of handmade warmth and indebted texture dyed with natural dyes.
It's the ultimate eco-friendly to use onion skins and eggplant skins () that should normally be thrown away for dyes.
This is the first time that an exhibition has been held since each item is handmade one by one, and this exhibition is a valuable opportunity to see "Kurashiki Vegetable Dye".
The event will be held from Monday, August 21 to 27 (Sun).
In addition, we received your consent 
for the photography in the gallery, and gave a friendly and polite explanation of the interview.
Thank you very much
