aka. Gina,

“My passion for life is fueled by a desire to discover the convergence of beauty and art through personal exploration, observation, and practice. I believe that fabrics are a mirror of my life's philosophy, reflecting a deep-seated attitude toward the world around me. This belief extends to a profound commitment to using natural materials. To me, they are not just a choice but a statement of respect for the environment and a reflection of my values. In every thread and weave, I see an opportunity to express my reverence for nature and my quest for sustainable beauty.”

As a textile undergraduate, my educational journey doesn't end here; I am determined to continue my pursuit of knowledge through graduate studies. This next step is a vital part of my commitment to exploring the intricate relationship between beauty, art, and the practical application of textiles. It's an opportunity to deepen my understanding of how sustainable materials can not just reflect our lifestyles but also positively impact the environment. Graduate studies will provide me with the advanced tools and theories needed to critically engage with textile design and innovation. My aim is to emerge not just as a student of textiles, but as a contributor to a more sustainable and aesthetically rich world, where the fabric is not just material but a canvas of life's philosophy.
