The NOW

My original concept was inspired by a sacred object: a heart-shaped stone I once gave to my dad. He kept it for years and returned it to me when I left for university. This simple object carries deep emotional weight, symbolising the safety of my father, the comfort of home, and the enduring love of family. Through a process of experimentation, I eventually arrived at an organic design that embodies these sentiments—using petal-like forms to represent the protective, nurturing embrace of familial love.
