Wander and Wonder is a print collection born from my time studying abroad in Thailand, a chapter marked by cultural immersion, meaningful connection, and creative discovery. Drawing inspiration from the intricate motifs and tilework found throughout temples and Thai architecture, I carved a series of stamps that reflect similar geometry, rhythm, and symbolism. Beyond visual inspiration, the heart of this work lies in the personal exchanges I shared with local artisans and tribal communities. These moments deepened my appreciation for heritage craft and heightened the role of making as a form of storytelling. Guided by the values of Play Everyday, this collection embraces vibrant color as a tool for curiosity, capturing the same warmth, wonder, and emotion I experienced navigating a new space. Wander and Wonder celebrates the interplay between structure and spontaneity, honoring both the visual language of Thai culture and the playful freedom of personal adventure.
