* Sustainable Art: The project emphasizes sustainability by transforming historical textiles into pieces of art, contributing to eco-friendly practices in the art and interior world.

* Multiple Options: Backers can choose from a range of designs and framing options, allowing for personalized pieces that fit seamlessly into diverse home decor styles.

* Exclusive Rewards: Kickstarter supporters will have access to limited-edition art pieces and other exclusive rewards.

"Antique kimonos represent centuries of artistry and cultural heritage," said Lena Okamoto, founder of ikasu. "Our goal is to honor this legacy by transforming these beautiful fabrics into contemporary art pieces that bring a touch of history and elegance into modern living spaces. We are excited to share this journey with our backers and invite them to be a part of preserving and celebrating these incredible works of art."
