Almirah of Curiosities
Conceived with artist Thamshangpha (Merci) Maku, this cabinet embodies his evocative sentiment: “my home is made, not given.” From the familiar, reassuring grasp of the almirah’s locking mechanism to tribal motifs both inherited and reinterpreted - the piece becomes both a vessel of memory and a marker of cultural resilience. More than a cabinet, it is a storied threshold between personal and collective histories.
