Inspired by her upbringing amongst a male dominated military family, she draws from her own experiences growing up facing “toxic femininity.” In her collection she felt it was important to express that a female identity isn’t exclusive or definitive, changing the mindset of what being female means.

I have a strong personal interest in digital illustration and print design. The idea for my colourful and eclectic prints came about naturally when I was learning about the Riot Grlzzz feminist movement. These women had rejected stereotypes given to them and promoted their own interests through fanzines. I felt a real connection with this movement and thus sparked my print developments. Layering my own Feminist visuals to create a “wearable zine.” Post-graduation I will continue to develop my digital design skills and would love to progress to an industry role that I could utilise this.
