Partum Opus

We organised this unique competition to provide people sitting at home with a creative outlet through which they can explore their horizons. As we wanted to encourage a freedom of expression and perspective, we did not keep any material restrictions or design limitations. 

The response was outstanding and it was humbling to see the global impact of this crisis. We received many innovative designs with compelling stories.

The piece with the most likes will be declared as the winner on 17th May and we will manufacture it on a per order basis. 

 

'Lotus': Pendant by Jhankar Bansal (India)

 

Lotus has been the foremost inspiration of the design. This beautiful flower grows out in the mud and so we are stuck in the mud of lockdown waiting to bloom. The quality of the flower depicts peace and serenity like the world around us. The petals send a message of individuality present in togetherness.

There is a proverb in Iranian culture that expresses the importance of unity and teamwork, little drops of water make a mighty ocean.

This design has been made to portray the radiance of life. The drops represent human beings and the fish symbolise life. The waves of sea and pearls are indicative of our ultimate goal - if people are together and united, we can achieve anything and overcome the coronavirus.
