This piece is part of the collection ‘Connected’—an invitation to slow down and reweave the bonds between ourselves and nature. 

‘Connected’ reflects the delicate balance between human presence and the natural world—reminding us that what we love, we protect. The artwork is created with authentic fallen autumn leaves, honoring their life cycle and delicate nature. Through a natural process, they are restored to preserve their strength, flexibility, and longevity—crafted with sustainability and ethics at the forefront. Each leaf is carefully hand-stitched onto recycled cardboard with meticulous craftsmanship.

The restored leaves carry a silent history, a story of falling and finding new purpose. Much like our own journeys of disconnection and rediscovery, these pieces embody the act of turning inward, grounding, and reconnecting the fragments of self. They echo the quiet yet profound realization that healing begins with presence, and presence begins with connection. It invites the viewer to pause and to find beauty in the quiet cycles of life.
