As children, Sola Kamal and his sister would sit wrapped in blankets on their balcony, looking up at the night sky. They tied a fork to a thread and threw it as high as they could, certain that one day they might catch the moon. His sister knew it was impossible, but never took the possibility away from her. Years later, Sola remembers less about the game than the freedom his sister gave him to believe in it.

Attempting the Moon returns to that space between memory and imagination. Its surfaces hold images that can be glimpsed but never seen all at once: sheer pleated tulle is fused over floral printed fabrics, so fragments of the pattern appear and disappear as the textile moves. Floral printed lace, tulle, and lace jersey add further layers of transparency and texture. Baby blue, lilac, blush pink, and deeper shades of blue carry the collection between the softness of a childhood recollection and the night sky in which it began.

A reversible, transformable coat gives this idea another form. Finished with equal care on both sides, it can be worn and understood in more than one way; neither side is treated as a hidden interior. Alongside the collection’s bias finishing and layered surface work, its construction asks how a memory changes with each return to it. The moon was always out of reach, but the belief Sola’s sister protected remains.
