In my graduation project, I merge traditional Tajik embroidery with contemporary design. Hand-embroidered pieces and textile prints based on my paintings were integrated into modern silhouettes. It is a visual and emotional reflection of my personal experience: A narrative about transformation and the question of belonging. More than just fashion—this project is an artistic statement about identity, migration, and cultural bridges.
