ALKE Adapting Octopus Green Earrings
This piece draws inspiration from the jimmiki, a traditional Tamil design, and reflects on resilience. Tamil women, particularly those from Sri Lanka, have faced immense challenges, yet they’ve adapted with grace and strength. The octopus symbolizes this adaptability, able to change and fit into any space while holding on to its essence. This piece is a tribute to that spirit.
