As I created these pieces, I realized that the work and detail put into them might be overlooked in a fast-paced runway setting. After the show, I invited viewers to take a closer look at the work, and now, here, viewers can continue to experience them. As you scroll through, you may recognize some of the figures by name and look. For more context and information, please see the Artist Statement. The works are organized by order of appearance.
