“Nefisi Tekili” is a project inspired by the Surma tribes living in Ethiopia, intended to investigate their culture and traditions deeply connected to Mother Nature. The natural world is seen as a holy entity, thought to be honored and celebrated through fashion parades and religious rituals where people wear body paintings and elements drawn from earth. Through a series of studies on signs, pattern, colors and textures, a general portrait of their way of living is given.
