Flowering Cherry Blossom Workshop

Sansei Granddaughters' Journey

Create textile cherry blossom flowers using personal photos of loved ones.

AZ Gallery

Facilitator: Kathy Fujii-Oka

12 attendees – sewing experience helpful, adults and 10 years+ with adult


Sansei granddaughter, Kathy Fujii-Oka will present her Cherry Blossom Installation (in the exhibition) and how it relates to her, her family and their nursery, and the incarceration. The cherry blossom blooming season is stunningly beautiful and intoxicating, but tragically short lived. The temporal and lovely blooms are a testament of how precious and precarious life is, as in life, death, and transcendence.

Kathy will then facilitate the process of creating a 3-dimensional cherry blossom textile flower.
Using decorative fabrics and trims, with personal photos, students will learn how to make their own flower for a loved one who has died or someone they dearly love. At the end of the class, the students will share their flower and story behind it.
