The Puisi Kintsugi Collection
Pearls after pearls
I have sewn in your scars
Our feminine names
Weaving the link
The unconditional love
Multiplied
To reach you
Primal animal
Ancestor
Pearl after pearl
I have sewn in your scars
Our feminine prayers
Back in the Line
Welcoming forgiveness
Absolution
Each of the secret chants
Millenary healing
Emergency of the Present Time
Pearls after pearls
I have sewn in your scars
Our feminine gratefulness
Wearing the dress made with your skin
Beloved seal
Your fur has the colour of water
And its surface reveals
The love from the abysses
Puisi Kintsugi is a Tribute-Collection of dresses to the Inuit People, inspired by the Japanese art of « kintsugi » : healing, repairing and enhancing scars with gold. It is the innovative idea of the French artist Oïjha to use this traditionnal knowledge with Greenlandic seal - « puisi » - fur for a wearable purpose, turning the natural seal scars into precious treasures. The ethics of Puisi Kintsugi is dedicated to heal our scars and those of our ancestors, reaching our common animal. It is a celebration of Life.
