Shanan’s affinity for the natural world has recently been focused on the jungle as a source of unspoiled primordial energy, which has inspired her during her more recent travels. She has translated this inspiration through her masterful use of watercolor and ink into a vibrant visual narrative.
“Jangala” which means jungle in Sanskrit, is a both a departure from and evolution of Eskayel’s signature aesthetic, utilizing highly saturated colors and wilder, untamed patterns.
The Jangala Collection is offered in six patterns, each available in three color ways.
With the Jangala Collection, Shanan has explored the concept of density by creating color ways that are more intensely pigmented than those of her previous work. Though density is generally associated with the lush vegetation of the jungle, patterns such as Astral in Night are a literal expression of the star-filled nightfall that extends above the jungle canopy, capturing that maximal, all-encompassing feeling that is the essence of Jangala.
