“ You kind of
rebel against
what you
grow up with.
I accessed
fashion as an
outlet for that.”

“ I watched a video called
the Room of Silence.
It was about the void in
art school critiques
when work is related to
identities of marginalized
people. I’ve seen that
happen, where any kind
of racial or multicultural
material is void in class
critiques.”
“ I went to an India study
trip. There were a ton
of professors that never
talked about Indian
art with me, but talked a
lot about how Indian I
was or how much I knew
about India.”
