The jacket you just saw  has a story before it became this wearable work of art.
"Once, the jacket was bought an worn to make its  owner look beautiful.
While wearing it, it would feel like home, no matter where in the world.
 And then , one day, the jackets was no longer the best jacket in the world."

So I bought it to transforme it into this wearable art jacket. Now the jacket has a new purpose, to tell a story to the world.
Underneath the colorful appearance there is more, herb symbolism, poetry and a bird.
The symbols on this jacket tell you about the time after a farewell.

Papaver Somniferium

Last night you left me...

the goldfish
herbs symbolism
The papaver symbolizes the impermanence of life, once you pluck this flower, she will fade.
As goddess of the night she gives comfort with her sleep and also dreams. She helps you to cross the borders of time and space, our reality.
In november lots of Brititsh people wear a poppy to commemorate the victims of the 1st and the 2nd World War.
poetry
Jala Al-Din Rumi was born in Afghanistan in 1207. most of his live he lived as a refugee in present Turkey. Rumi is a poet and a mystic and an upholder of tolerance.
One of the more important themes in the works of Rumi is love. Letting go of the pain and loning that comes with love, one can cross borders and maybe reach the unknown.
animal symbolism
She stands for tranquility. When you see a fish of this kind, you can enter a piecefull state of mind.
This golden fish  also represents surplus and abundance. And she is a powerful fish, powerful to do as she wants.

Last night

Last night you left me and slept
your own deep sleep.
Tonight you turn and turn.
I say, "You and I will be together till the universe dissolves."
You mumble back things you thought of...
... when you were drunk.
