Maiko Takeda grew up in Tokyo in a green and quiet area, a rarity for such an eclectic city. As life goes, it would be exactly these small oddities of the big picture that would dominate her work. It’s not merely about the contrast its about respecting each shape, each material, each stone to the detail and evince all its diversity. With her the devil truly lies in the details.
After having moved to London she still seems to be as immune to modern pop culture as ever but then again isn’t timelessness always the essential component, to an everlasting piece of art.
For her graduation project at central st martin's, japanese designer maiko takeda created the 'cinematography' collection. each metal accessory is covered in hand-drilled holes of various sizes that cast photograph-like shadows onto the wearers skin.
