05 Gati

I was inspired by the vibrant colours and joy of the holidays. Whenever we think of a festival we start thinking about decorations for our homes since they are an integral part of the celebration. Diwali has been my favorite festival since childhood, and I created this collection to recollect my childhood memories of India. The colours, materials and motifs used in this collection convey a sense of nostalgia. Each motif has a significant meaning and importance. Working on this project has been therapeutic in a sense, because it reminded me of all the good things I had growing up, and that is where the "joy" comes from.

“The word "Gati" means motion in Sanskrit. I wanted to create a design that appears to move. ”
