Origin Collection I – Koi–White Hood

The koi featured on this garment derive from the full sleeve composition of Origin Piece I — Marked Sleeves.

Developed in reference to Japanese tattoo iconography, the twin koi are arranged in circular movement — bodies turning against one another while maintaining directional flow. Their motion is constructed through layered linework, controlled curvature, and balanced negative space.

In the original work, the koi were hand-painted directly onto leather.
This garment translates that intervention into a soft fleece format while preserving the compositional rhythm and balance of the source work.

Built with a relaxed hooded silhouette, adjustable drawstrings, and a kangaroo pocket, the structure remains simple while allowing the composition to remain dominant. The fleece interior provides warmth while maintaining the clarity of the printed mark.

The structural form behind the figures references the underlying layout used within the sleeve composition — reinforcing the circular movement of the koi.
