The rug collection epitomizes the sense of wonder that nature ignites when we bring a lens to the micro beauty of flora and fauna in the equatorial forest.
Collected leaves, flowers, fruits and bark from the city’s forested parks were magnified and cropped into hundreds of compositions of nature’s micro universe.
Meticulous selection winnowed down the artworks to the selected few that have harmonious balance of colour, enigmatic details and gradient of textures. The resulting six rugs are abstract narratives of the tropical nature.
