The work challenges the need for categorization and fixed identity. Lately, I have felt that society is once again dividing people into extremes. This is not a world that welcomes everyone. I have always been drawn to what lies in between. I am interested in the spaces between cultures, between clarity and ambiguity, between freedom and control, and between the self and others. My creative practice begins by exploring these blurry boundaries. Rather than trying to make things fit into one side or the other, I aim to understand the richness that exists in the middle. Paper has always been central to this process. I used it for spontaneous drawing, later turning those drawings into textile prints and garments that connected me with others. For this project, I chose to remain in between. Instead of translating drawings into fabric, I created garments directly from paper. It felt like a space between image and body, deeply personal yet open to others. At the center of the garment, I placed a flower motif to represent the merging of opposites. It appeared artificial but felt alive. Built through both instinct and structure, the flower carried stamens and pistils, expressing a form of beauty that felt honest to me. Just as flowers grow through light, wind, and contact with the world, I believe we too can grow by staying open to others.
