I present to you a unique piece of wearable art, born from the remnants of various fabrics I had lying around. This unconventional handbag exudes a whimsical and kitschy charm, embodying a blend of creativity and resourcefulness.
At the heart of this creation is a bold tribal design adorning the back, hand-drawn with a touch of rebellion and individuality. It serves as a visual statement, adding an edgy and distinctive flair to the overall aesthetic.
The front of the handbag features a petite figure, a recurring character in my artistic repertoire and a personal muse. This charming little character, reminiscent of a doll, takes a centre stage, adding a touch of playfulness to the design. Embracing the essence of my alter ego, "きらきら"(Kirakira) ,meaning "bling-bling" in Japanese, the handbag is adorned with glitters. These sparkly elements reflect my  love for all things shiny, turning the accessory into a true representation of my style.
To enhance the visual appeal further, a series of melted plastics are strategically incorporated, creating a colourful and textured surface. This addition not only contributes to the overall trashy aesthetic but also symbolizes the beauty that can emerge from unconventional materials.

In essence, this handbag is a celebration of creativity, individuality, and the beauty that can arise from repurposed materials. It tells a story of resourcefulness and personal expression, making it a truly one-of-a-kind accessory that reflects the essence of "きらきら."
