Laurencia Irena Spring/Summer’22

‘Rainy Blossoms’

Inspired by Laurencia’s days in Japan, the memorable spring and rainy seasons have been the inspiration for this collection. Looking at Kawase Hasui’s use of colours that displayed atmospheric effects and natural lighting, as seen on earlier Ukiyo-e paintings, Laurencia wanted this collection to reflect such affect.

Constant weather changing, combining the days of cherry blossoms, with light-blue sky and humid days with dark-grey sky, accented by the occasional down pour.

The collection explores different textures and bead applications, featuring rain drops and hydrangea single flower beads that blossom during the rainy season.
