Interwoven realms

Interwoven Realms was inspired by a fleeting moment of looking through a rain-covered skylight. As rain traced across the glass, the outlines of trees and buildings gradually blurred and merged, creating a scene that felt both familiar and entirely new. I found myself unexpectedly moved by this quiet composition, realizing that some of the most beautiful forms already exist in the world around us—we simply need to pause long enough to notice them. This collection is an exploration of those overlooked moments, where nature and architecture coexist, boundaries dissolve, and everyday landscapes become something poetic. Through textiles, construction, and material exploration, I seek to translate that ephemeral beauty into garments.
