Messages From The Stars is the name of my MA graduation collection.
For this body of work, I was investigating queer stereotypes and making them into personas that relate to my own experience of queerness and transness. These personas that I created - The Joker, The Pirate, The Babe, The Raver, Th
e Fairy, The Demon, and The Witch all became a portrait of myself and the community/context that I exist within.
So the collection is at the intersection of this character study of the multiple self-theory and the investigation of Glamour and Flamboyance through the lens of abjection and the reclaiming of that.
The collection is called "Messages From The Stars" and serves as a love letter to the trans communities everywhere.
The collection is created from deadstock, zero-waste techniques and upcycling.
