Washed up on the shore
‘‘from Nature to experimental couture‘‘
The entire collection is founded on observation and foraging. Marine gifts such as shells, algae and stones that were washed up on the shore found their way into our hands after the original sea creatures called it a home, counting on us to tell their stories of our mutual home.
Now we are sewing these gifts on our garments and braiding them in our necklaces.
We cannot but think of their life before. Observe how the entire marine ecosystem is rapidly changing due to human intervention. An unseen world is collapsing due to temperature rising, overfishing, oil and chemical spills.
This makes us think of the many beautiful gifts we receive and asks the question of what are we giving back?
