TRACE

Category: Accessories

Environmental damage does not truly disappear; instead, it is preserved in various forms, gradually leaving irreversible traces within nature. This design uses the walking cane as a symbol. Originally a tool that supports human movement, each contact with the ground simultaneously leaves a mark behind. Stone is used as a representation of these traces. Its hard exterior is gradually eroded and damaged by environmental forces over time. Much like humanity’s dependence on resources, every step forward inevitably creates an impact on the environment. These seemingly minor marks accumulate over time, eventually transforming into scars that cannot be erased.
