Her designs are deeply inspired by mythology and philosophy, reflecting complex themes such as interconnectedness and transformation. One headpiece draws from the concept of “Dependent Origination,” symbolizing a universe where everything is connected and constantly evolving.
Another design channels the icy beauty and mysterious nature of Yuki-onna, expressed through a striking black crown that merges melancholy with modern elegance. Merve also captures the essence of Persephone, the Greek goddess of nature and rebirth, in a headpiece that symbolizes renewal.
Her “Nyx’s Weave” garment is a wearable sculpture inspired by the goddess of the night, born from Chaos, embodying darkness and mystery with a modern twist. All these pieces combine ancient myths with cutting-edge 3D printing technology, showcasing how art and innovation can intersect.
