TEMILY SHOWROOM
TOMORROW
Paris, 2026
I had the pleasure of travelling to Paris with the TEMILY team to meet with buyers and present our latest collection. Alongside the appointments, I helped set up and curate the showroom environment to reflect the TEMILY aesthetic and create a space that allowed buyers to better understand and experience the world of the brand. It was a wonderful experience to travel and work alongside the team internationally, gaining valuable insight into the wholesale and presentation side of the business.

-
Industry and automation consume us—work must stay vital to survive. This
- idea,paraphrasing Swiss sculptor Jean Tinguely’s words, feels more relevant than ever in a
- world where profit suffocates creativity. We’ve lost sight of making art for discovery, not
- just what sells. With his kinetic sculpture Homage to New York, Tinguely embraced chaos.
- My thesis does the same—handcrafted, imperfect, alive. It rejects hollow trends and
- influencer clout. New York’s edge has dulled, but this is a rebellion—a love letter to the
- city’s grit, soul, and raw humanity.
HOMAGE TO NEW YORK PHOTOGRAPHY
Photography, 2024
NATHANIEL SAMUEL
Each frame offers more than a subject; it holds a presence, a tension, a trace of the unseen. The work is not about documentation, but communion—with movement, stillness, and the creative force that flickers just beneath the surface of the city.
Together, these images form a portrait not of place, but of pulse. A whispered archive of those who make, disrupt, and remain.
TEMILY LAUNCH EVENT W/ MODA OPERANDI
Exhibition
TEMILY
I had the wonderful opportunity to help produce the launch event for a startup brand called Temily, which launched exclusively with Moda Operandi. While working on the event, I also contributed to the design of the pieces that were showcased.
