The Story

Design • Pattern • Print

All of these are elements essential for creativity. But what is it that holds these together?

.

.

My mind wanders to find the answer. Everything around us is held together in one way or another. What is the binding force holding us together? 

.

.

I funneled my thoughts further to focus on myself. We all have both good and attributes. What is it that defines me as ME? Is it my physical features, my actions or is it something else altogether? Made me ponder even harder.

.

.

As humans, we are constantly evolving. After birth, we are raised under classic conditioning of our parents who build our core values. This is the first and maybe the only form of unconditional love. Family (close and extended) is the first exposure to the outside world, followed schooling institution and friends that we make during this time. Colleagues and life partners flow in over the years. We reach a point where we become the source unconditional love to our offspring. All humans are flowing in the same cycle with our own timing that we call fate. 

Do we lose ourselves in this drift?

.

I say YES!

.

I'm lucky to have gotten a second chance at life. Won't bore you with details. I'm 40 and my Iife should be pretty much sorted. But here I am, standing at square one. It is intimidating, overwhelming and many other scary words. All I can do is change my perspective to look at things, as the scary words aren't helping in any way.

.

I've been given a clean slate to start over...Woah...that sounds better.

.

I think harder- What was I before I was alive? A cell - The cell is minute but has everything within itself. If I'm a cell, I must have it all in me too.

The solution to everything is within me.

.

I'm on a journey to finding myself.

Tuning in back to design, pattern, print.

The elements of design are all held together by Colour. 

.

.

Let's explore Colour and Rebirth together.

.

The Rebirth Collection focuses on minimal design with a blast of colour. The pattern is chaotic. I attempt to find balance with the use of neutrals and green - the colour of growth. My embroideries are inspired by nature that holds greens colour in the most magical way.

The solution to everything is within me.
