About Galerie Mirages
Shibori is a free textile art exhibition by Galerie Mirages, held at Galerie Mirages as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

The exhibition features Haori silk kimono jackets, fabric from Japan, silk and cotton fabric, and shawls and scarves from India, all decorated with traditional tiny dots. A very unique exhibition of this exquisite textile art, and the gallery's thirty-eighth festival exhibition.
