"I'm Elizabeth Selly, born in Bengkulu. Bengkulu is a small city known for its many beaches and mountains. My late father used to work in a mining company, which meant we frequently moved from one city to another. My father was a very disciplined and strict person, and my mother was deeply loyal to him. My father passed away when I was 12 years old. After his death, my sister, my mother, and I moved in with my grandmother in West Java. I pursued a college education with a major in fashion and textiles, earning scholarships due to my achievements.

"My professional journey began at the age of 22 when I started working as a designer for a Korean company based in Bandung. This initial experience led me to work as a fashion stylist and eventually as an accessories designer for a company located on the island of Bali. This marked the beginning of my belief in following my passion. I found love in the creative opportunities this field provided. I have a deep fondness for travel and adventure in nature, which is why I fell in love with Bali. It allows me to be close to nature and immerse myself in the beautiful Balinese culture.

"Creating dyes from natural materials is the most challenging aspect of my work. It's in this process that I can experiment and find surprises in every color outcome. The real challenge lies in upcycling leftover fabric into more useful products. I firmly believe that choosing organic and sustainable materials can have a positive impact, not only on our health but also on the environment. All the products I create are made from 100% natural fibers."
