Seems I am on a constant evolution from: working with product, to working with art. My practice involves textile art, working exclusively with natural dyes. Upon origins of Amacata Design Concepts, my intention has been to spread awareness towards slow fashion alternatives and (re)connection to Nature, as a means to alter society’s reliance on fast fashion. However, with rising consciousness of power inequity, and its' direct link to climate emergency, I am more compelled to raise awareness of how acknowledging that we ARE Nature can help clue into conscious choices. Thus, with Nature as my guide, and uncovering hidden truths, the hope is to tap into a connected life. Advocating a cultural shift towards learning and unlearning - thus embracing new knowledge with humility, respect, and grace. I support conscious living, and knowing we are all connected. The return to harmoniously being Nature rather than being against it.
