The mountains captivate me. Even when it’s not clear in sight, I can feel its call and longing. In the Kadazan Dusun tradition, souls of the deceased are carried away by the sacred spirits of Mount Kinabalu to rest on its peak. And that gives me solace to know where I’ll abide when the time comes.

Inspiration
This collection was inspired by my afternoon walks 
on a stormy and cloudy day on the beach. Whenever I go for nature walks, I like to forage for raw materials. Sometimes I just hold on em’ as I walk (as a way of connecting with the earth) or bring em’ back with me. But how do you store your feelings of the place? Thus, this collection was created. My way of bottling the smell of fresh crisp air, a gentle touch of the cold wind, the groaning of the dreamy sea and the mysterious yet inviting midst. 
From my heart to yours.
