Elnara Nasirli is a vibrant figure in Azerbaijani art, recognized for her daring use of color and profound affinity with nature. Her work, inspired by eco-themes and the beauty of the natural world, displays a belief in the harmony between humanity and the environment. She encourages us to reconnect with the environment, see the world through an eco-conscious lens, and consider its impact on the planet. Thus, she became one of our main models for the Renaissance collection, reflecting its beauty and sustainable awareness. Our meeting with her was meant to learn about her routine and ask simple questions, which made us(and hopefully you) feel closer.

• Your favorite thing to watch
I often review old movies or series that I've seen because they give me a sense of comfort and coziness. I am also binge-watching videos where people create something and learn something new
