The collection is symbolic of the development of my life's narrative, as depicted in "Genesis," representing the inception of this ongoing chapter, and "Sea of Lust," representing its progression. The conceptual inspiration for this body of work draws from Robert Mapplethorpe, particularly his 'flowers' and 'nude figures' series. These photographs explore the association between blossoming and lust. In my designs, I have incorporated elements from both human figures and flowers to symbolise the concept of blossoming in my narrative.
