Mina Perhonen

Japanese textile and fashion label Mina Perhonen make beautiful prints and textiles. Though they are a flat medium, their simple forms and sense of movement and colour has inspired me in my 3d medium of jewellery and object.
Their website, even the english version, is a little difficult to grasp, with statements like,

'May buy with net the male roughness this Focusing on mina and north European ones chair or miscellaneous goods etc',

and their self described 'successive beefsteak style of mina perhonen' (?).

So i've included little tasters from one of their books 'Print' which, with a little persistance, can be bought from japanese amazon.
