Vessel

For my botanical garden assignment, I made an incense stick out of rose petals so while creating the vessel for it I was trying to come up with ways I could incorporate the incense sticks and decided to make a tiara from artificial rose petals, wire and the incense sticks. I wanted to explore how incense sticks don't always need to be burned because they have such a strong scent even on the outside.

Sanctuary

In Indian mythology rose flowers symbolize purity and beauty, so for my santuary I came up with an immersive box full of real frozen and dried rose petals as well as artifical rose petals in which people can submerge their head, the box also has a bowl of scented ice in its center to add a cool calming effect on people and to support how ice is often also used for beauty. The colour of the box is saffron since saffron is the color of purity in Indian mythology. There are also holes on the sides for light to pass through, as well as to allow for more air to breathe and not feel suffocated and it is paired with a sound of chanting and bells.
