A synthesis of a journey that transpires old family bonds, which lead to a newly found reconnection. Inspired by her late father’s homeland, that he was incognizant of. The representing symbol is the map of the land, introduced by irregular shapes, organic forms, and subtle details, that contour the garments.
Mokoena uses silhouettes to create a sublime balance between masculine and sharp feminine touches. It is through the versatility and similarity of the garments we are able to recognize change and connection – a fusion inspired by the landscape and her family bloodline.
