Hyacinth Spirit

Category: Footwear

The inspiration behind this boot is the Hyacinth Macaw, a radiant jewel of Brazil’s native fauna. I chose this bird for this competition because it soars as a symbol of Brazil’s heart—vivid, rare, and free. The layered textures reflect the bird’s plumage—each scale a dream, each crack a story. In this piece, I wanted to honor the spirit of this bird—bold, unique, and a guardian of the skies.
