ようこそ!

Morigokochi (森心地) is the studio of multi-disciplinary artist and erstwhile Japanese teacher, Rachel Charlow Lenz. By specializing in contemporary applications of heritage Japanese fiber arts, Morigokochi hopes to help keep these crafts alive and share them with those outside Japan who might not otherwise have the opportunity to discover them.
