Where’s home for you?
Home is where I feel security and comfort. It can be anywhere in this world, even if only for one day and night.

Self-reflection leads my creative work. It is necessary for me to find balance in self-growth and creativity in order to fully myself.
How do you embrace vulnerability in your work?
Through approachability and honesty.
What’s your inspiration for this collaboration?
I believe in the beauty of sharing same values and inspiration.

What sort of imagery and shapes do you feel attracted to?
Anything I can relate to today. I always ask myself, how do you feel right now, and I go from there - this can be airy, pastel colours -
or pop colours? Silky 70s outfits worn by Issey Miyake models dancing around, up to static video performances where simplicity is being
framed by emotions.
Name three artists/creatives that inspire you.
Tilda Swinton, Pina Bausch, Miuccia Prada - they are iconic and inspiring for connecting art and fashion.
Do you find useful following a routine or you you prefer to follow your emotional impulses?
I let my emotions lead my routine.
