An individually sourced Levi Strauss & Co. denim in medium sky blue, selected for its 100% cotton composition and transformed through Akire’s horizontal beadwork.
Copper brown, black, and light blue are worked across the denim in horizontal lines.
The darker tones define the rhythm, while light blue sits closer to the original wash, creating subtle shifts between contrast and continuity.
The Akire beetle appears at the back pocket in copper brown—a singular mark that carries one of the front colours onto the reverse.
A restrained study of line, colour and placement, worked bead by bead through the hand.
