The winged handbags are likely already familiar to many. These are our signature models. A touch of avant-garde captured in a functional design, perfect for accompanying every woman in her daily life.
And how did it all begin?
Quite specifically ;)
It all started with a very special exhibition at the Tichauer Art Gallery in Tychy.
"7 Senses" – as it was titled – was organized by the HELISA Foundation under the direction of Katarzyna Korus. The exhibition aimed to pamper everything we feel!
To soothe with sound, embrace with art, and sway with dance.
The space was filled with art of various flavors!
There were paintings by the creator of the exhibition, who used her unique technique to combine realistic images with fantasy elements and a slightly surreal reality. There were sculptures by Marta Mulawa, which, with their human accents, connected us to nature. Photographs by Jaga Hupało, capturing her artistic and visual work. Moreover, a unique performance created by her hand transported everyone to a parallel reality of art, not only of hairstyling, but also symbolizing change and a certain transition into a different realm of perception.
Sebastian Cynk, who can express emotions through dance like no one else!
All of this, enveloped in music by Sebastian Wichary (Adam Nickey), Michał Pilecki (Monomike), and Joanna Zubrycka (Miss God), created an extraordinary and incredibly coherent whole!
Gaba Porabik – the creator of our brand – was invited to co-create this event.
It was not only a great honor for her but also a challenge to create a collection that combines feelings, emotions, senses, and everything that is important for our body and spirit.
And she succeeded – Gaba created models that not only carry ethereal and fleeting elements but are primarily based on forms we encounter in the surrounding space on a daily basis.
And that’s how the now well-known s e v e n . s e n s e s collection began.
Its prototypes were hand-sewn backpacks, richly decorated and finished with magnificent wings. Each of these initial pieces was created as a one-of-a-kind item, specifically dedicated to the aforementioned exhibition.
Some of them quickly found their owners, while some remained, continuing to accompany not only Gaba but also us on this sensual journey.
But that wasn’t the end...
It was just the beginning!
Based on the first models, Gaba transferred the concept of the collection to a series of models marked with our logo, available to a wider audience. She created something everyone could afford.
Something that gave every woman wings and made her feel special.
Thus, the winged motif was transferred to the designs, which you can still purchase from us today – and will be able to for a long time!
What do you think?
Is this avant-garde style to your taste, or do you prefer more classic motifs? :)
