Hidden bloom

This project explores the metamorphosis of identity in time through the symbolism of a flower. The gathered and wrinkled surface reflects the passage of time, aging, and lived experience, while the hidden bloom represents an inner self that is not constantly visible. The flower is revealed only through movement and transformation, suggesting moments of safety, openness, and personal growth. The design balances concealment and revelation, drawing parallels between natural processes and the evolving layers of human identity.
