Beauty Within the Hand

Technology has come such a long way that we have all become raveled into mass production whether we like it or not.  How much do we actually consider or look back to beauty within the hand?

I am a textile designer originally from Kenya and has studied in Perth, has taken a step back from technology.  I am planning to have my own label called Beauty Within the Hand. The inspiration behind my collection and designs is that I come from a very different cultural background, after coming to Perth, I took in the landscape and merged it with what already existed within me (The Kenyan landscape). This led me to a journey to hand dye cloth in colours associated with both the Australian and Kenyan landscape. I further translated these fabrics (chiffon) into contemporary neckpieces. They are quite unique and can be worn with plain outfits or they could also be wall pieces.
My collection has the potential to develop into other products such as bags from the hand dyed chiffon fabric.
