The project celebrates sustainability and reverence for the natural world through textiles. It combined natural dyeing techniques with Nuno felting
to minimize the ecological footprint of the textile industry, while honoring the Earth's spirit. Botanical treasures
such as butterfly pea tea, hibiscus, avocado's skin and seed, mangosteen's skin, red onion's skin, turmeric, coffee, and black beans
were used to infuse the work with their unique personalities and stories, which fosters authenticity
and respect
for the environment. The harmonious fusion of wool and cheesecloth in Nuno felting emphasizes the interconnectedness
of all things and the delicate balance we must strive for in our relationship with nature. My mission is to promote sustainability through luxurious, sustainable garments that engage the senses and showcase the beauty of craftsmanship.
This creative path has led to profound insights into the potential of textiles to convey ecoconsciousness
and appreciation
for the Earth's gifts, which inspires a shift towards sustainability
in the fashion industry.
