concept
Sometimes activities like listening to music, or even exercising, give an intense feeling of being alive. Sometimes animals must feel the same. Choosing the deer as a muse: very cautious, just like human beings, it can communicate great strength through its horns, an extension of its self which it uses like arms. Reflecting that deers living in a quiet forest are not much different from people living in this forest called society. Such considerations are all embedded in this bag collection. The bending lines of the zippers recall the cables of earphones coming out of pockets or bags. The numbers represent tracks on a playlist and of course the material of choice is reindeer leather.
