In the session, Japanese teacher Hitomi will discuss the importance of nature and the seasons to the Japanese appreciation of colour. In Japanese art, food and textiles, colours play a central role, and Hitomi will encourage participants to think about the colours in their lives and how they shape the way they feel and think.
