BETWEEN SURFACE AND SELF

INTRODUCING OUR NEW COLLECTION

This body of work is a reflective study of identity in motion. A pondering of midlife shifts.

After a Creative Pause, We Are Back!

 

 

We’re so excited to share our new collection: Between Surface and Self .
A quiet reflection on midlife identity, life’s unseen transitions, the invisible weight of expectation, and the inner dialogue we don’t often speak of, but carry.

 

Working with florals, foliage, and fruit, and this time we’ve introduced water and glass,
materials that reflect, distort, and reveal. Petals are pressed, blurred, and refracted by light,  a glimpse beneath the surface, a shifting boundary between what’s visible and what’s held within.

 

This is our most emotionally layered work to date, created to honour this particular moment in our lives, and the soft beauty found in the blur.

At its core, Between Surface and Self is a visual metaphor for what women often feel during life’s transitions. The collection invites you to pause, reflect, and embrace the beauty within, amidst change, pressure, and becoming.

We hope you love it.
Runa and Holly
