Most people know me for my Contemporary art practice, but I am also an avid Craftivist.
Upcycling is a passion of mine. I want to feel good, and I want to feel joy! There is nothing like two, three, or more contrasting patterns reconfigured into something that feels good, has pockets, and I can wear every day! Fashion is political; it can be a platform that says Joy is a form of resistance!
Craftivism is my way of disrupting commercial fashion conventions through unique sewing projects. As a contemporary artist and craftivist, I create magic capes, feel-good trousers, and dresses with political pockets. My line of "feel-good" clothing defies norms, sparks the imagination, and generates radical hope, one conflicting pattern and pocket at a time. I believe that clothing is an expression of our beliefs and should defy conventions. My approach is to make clothing fun, comfortable, and joyful. I don't use any special techniques other than reinventing things from surplus and damaged fabrics.
