Welcome to “Protection,” my deeply personal and transformative wearable art collection. Born from a profound need to shield myself from the tumultuous waves of inner feelings and childhood trauma experienced during my time at the orphanage, this collection stands as a testament to resilience and the power of artistic expression. Inspired by the awe-inspiring beauty of nature, from towering trees to delicate plants and the enigmatic creatures that inhabit our world, “Protection” merges the realms of art and self-preservation. Each wearable artwork serves as a fortress, carefully crafted to safeguard me from the sensory triggers that have the potential to awaken painful memories and trauma. Drawing upon the rich tapestry of the natural world, my collection explores the strength and resilience found within the organic structures of trees, plants, and animals. These elements become the foundation upon which I build my protective works, intricately weaving together materials that symbolize fortitude, endurance, and transformation. As you navigate through “Protection,” you will encounter wearable art pieces that embody the very essence of strength and sanctuary. The organic forms and textures mirror the natural world, evoking a sense of harmony and connection with the protective elements found in nature. Each artwork serves as a tangible shield against the triggers of the five senses. Sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell, which once had the power to unravel me, are now harnessed and channeled into forms of protection. The collection represents a journey of reclaiming power and agency, as I transform vulnerability into resilience through the transformative medium of wearable art. Through “Protection,” I invite you to witness the process of healing and self-preservation through art. It is my sincere hope that this collection serves as a beacon of strength and inspiration for others who may be navigating their paths of healing and seeking solace from the impact of past experiences. Join me on this transformative journey where art intertwines with personal growth, where nature provides solace, and where the act of protection becomes a symbol of triumph over adversity. Experience the resilience of the human spirit and the boundless possibilities that lie within the realm of wearable art in “Protection.”
