An ancient Japanese textile art form, Shibori embodies both craftsmanship and creative expression. Rooted in centuries of tradition, Shibori is more than just a technique; it is a philosophy that embraces the beauty of imperfection and the harmony between nature and human touch. This makes each outcome raw and different from one another.
This experience is an appreciation of the art of slowing down, of modern-day sensibilities still being relevant through age-old techniques, and of finding beauty and inspiration in all things that surround us.
The experience includes trying your hand at 3 different Shibori techniques to create your own customised design on a piece of fabric, under the guidance of an expert.

What's A 'Trove Experience'
As our cities swell, we tend to do fewer and repetitive things for recreation. With Trove, you get to break the monotony and explore fresh activities in your city, meet like-minded souls, and develop a deeper appreciation for the finer things.
Most of us likely resonate with terms like 'workshops' or 'events.’ What makes these an 'experience' is the energies we put into scouring the right artists, creators and storytellers, to ensure that each Trove Experience leaves you enriched with meaningful moments to collect for your very own treasure trove.
