In India, mango leaves represent purity and considered to be auspicious; they are often used in celebration and as symbols of welcome. Using this as the motivation, I cut and printed hundreds of paper mango leaves, which were hung in the entrance to the workspace. While I arrived at the workshop with this idea and the necessary materials, I drew inspiration from the rich textile designs I saw around Kumasi marketplace.
