I am inspired by the primitive image of this symbol and also empowered by the wild nature; Baobab trees has been known as "Tree of Life". UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This collection gives impression of organically designed beautiful flowers, however, the creation is originated in the geometric symbol of "Flower of Life" and it goes beyond just a flower image. Uniqueness of this design is that the motif has an another aspect that illustrates an Baobab Tree, which reminds us fruits and sacred power and unconditional love of our mother nature. The main suppose of this project is to express the power of life and create the collection of wearable arts.
