CHAPTER 01 — DESCENT
We descend beneath the surface.
Below the warm skin of the sea lies a world entangled. Discarded fishing gear — ghost nets — drift like silent shadows, catching everything they touch.
CHAPTER 02 — THE GHOST
Nets that outlive their keepers.
A single lost net keeps fishing for centuries, strangling reefs, suffocating turtles, choking the breath of coastal ecosystems.
CHAPTER 03 — A NAME
Minavar. The word for fisherman.
In Tamil, ‘Minavar’ honours the people who live with the sea. Our project began with upcycled nets and grew into a movement of restoration and livelihood.
CHAPTER 04 — THE TURN
Waste becomes warmth, becomes work.
Each net is hand-cleaned, untangled, and rewoven by coastal artisans and the women of Celeste — into keychains, jewellery, and stories.
