philosophy

We want to allow the viewer to gain different perspective on familiar things through synergizing with our artwork. Our bags serve as a canvas for expressing our creative intentions through properties that they did not initially possess endowing them with ability to bring aesthetic pleasure, while maintaining functionality.
