Marigold Premier
Be sure not to miss this classic botanica edition of ‘Marigold Premier’, a serigraph collection of canvas bags, totes, wallets, purses, compartments, pouches, and accessories. Melissa drew the ink sketch of Marigold on 10 April 2011, when she collaborated with a French writer, Virginie Kasse, for the book ‘Les Papillons de Victor’. The choice of this botanical object was due to the layering symbols of marigold in different cultures. Marigold symbolises creativity, passion, and also fragility. There are layers of self-disrespect in many artwork makers in Indonesia, for there are seldom public appreciations towards art and adequate infrastructure in the creative industry. This sense is contrary to what was done by the Indonesian ancestors from Ancient Mataram.
