NO BORDERS in KENYA with
@199xorg 🌹ending the year with one of our favourite collaborations🫂
Shot in Kenya entirely through their own lens, Ulipokua Hauepo is a quiet, emotionally grounded story of love, absence, and endurance☀️ Set on a tea estate, the space becomes both setting and symbol🌿🌸🧚 holding memory, intimacy, and stillness, and reflecting the rhythms and rituals of everyday life✨
Our
@nobordersinhouse handcrafted pieces feature throughout the film, moving through textures, gestures, and moments of cultural resonance🪡🧵 The campaign brings together crafts like Kantha, Kasuti, Bandhani, Kutch appliqué, and more🌹all rooted in South Asian craft legacies🪡 and places them in conversation with the textures, colors, and spirit of East Africa🫶🏾
