ARTISAN
For more than 15 years, Nathalie lived in Asia where she worked in design, fashion and hospitality. In 2021, she decided to return to Mauritius, her home country to pursue her passion for arts and crafts.
Other than drawing, Nathalie enjoys sewing and using recycled materials. She volunteers for an association in Mauritius and sews Emoji cushions, beautiful dolls and bags to raise funds for underprivileged children.
BLOSSOM
Call me Blossom. I was born on a beautiful tropical island called Mauritius. There is an abundance of colour in our flowers here, my favourite being yellow. As a hobby, I love watching butterflies dancing from bloom to bloom. Made with love and waste for Purple Lime.
TOM
Call me Tom. I was born in a small village, Pointe aux Cannoniers located north-west of Mauritius island. Back in the old days, it used to be a military camp for the French settlers and the ideal site for spotting fugitive slaves and English invaders. I love wearing my military camouflage jumper. When it rains I can still go outside to exercise and wear my hoodie. Made with love and waste for Purple Lime.
FIBER ART
Nathalie loves to experiment with fabric and thread to create beautiful handcrafted wall hangings and decorative objects. She combines weaving, macrame and quilting techniques to create unique art pieces.
CLEVER CRAFTS
What to do with an old keyboard or shoe bags?
Rethink, remake, reuse and repurpose things.
SAVE THE OCEAN
Living in a paradise island like Mauritius, Nathalie understands the importance to save the ocean. An astonishing amount of plastic ends up on the beach and in the ocean. Controlling pollution and overfishing can help to protect coral reefs and allow coral regeneration. Nathalie aims to inspire people to act for a change through arts.
