“Longevity”
Why wait for the objects that hold special emotional connection for you to get damaged?
That’s what I did when I received these traditional handmade socks from my home country.
For my grandma, as I remember growing up with her, to extend the lifespan of clothes by patching or stitching was a natural lifestyle. For me?…A project full of effort, driven by my creative nature and awareness of need to slow down my intense mind.
Either way it’s therapeutic and practical.
