About me

I’m a textile artist and designer. I work with, and only with, recycled and repurposed textiles. Through them I invite people to talk about issues pertinent to the fashion and textile industry, such as overconsumption, contamination, and violations of human and labour rights. I tend to use craft tools, not only because I feel more comfortable working by hand, but also to show my appreciation to them, and also to show that things made by hand have beautiful value in contrast with the ones made by impersonal machines that surround us. I consider myself a craftivist and I love cats :)
