At the beginning of 2023, I went to work with Manava, a responsible brand in Cambodia that handcrafts baskets, from locally sourced rattan and hand-crafted by women.

I had the opportunity to be part of two collections, homeware, and fashion accessories; and learn traditional techniques from the artisans.

During my stay, I researched and tried new patterns to simplify women's work and make the production of pieces faster.

Patterns are inspired by Kbach, Khmer ornaments.
