Helter Skelter Task Force (See Here)
Inspired by the 1986 film Labyrinth starring David Bowie, this line was my most screen-intensive project to date. I blended elements of Art Nouveau, particularly within the plant motifs, with darker and more sinister imagery like goblins and mythical creatures. This contrast created a visual tension, especially when printed on carefully curated neo-Gothic and Victorian garments.
Ode to Bug Girl
was a three-color screen print line that playfully mocked the intense fear some people have of insects. Growing up, I was always the one rescuing bugs from classrooms and other spaces, which earned me the nickname "Bug Girl" during adolescence. That fear was something I never understood, and as an adult, I reclaimed the once-mocking nickname by channeling it into my art—creating pieces that those same people now wear with pride.
Cryptids
was a line inspired by the folk art and cultural artifacts I encountered while living in New York City. Many of these influences came from diverse museum collections, and I used them as a springboard to create fictional artifacts of my own.
Demon
was a relatively straightforward line centered around the challenge of creating an oversized print that would span an entire torso. I chose to depict a wild, foreshortened demon creature to capture attention.
Prettiest Star
was my first extensive line, inspired by the David Bowie song of the same name (can you tell I’m a Bowie fan?). Drawing from proto-punk graphics, I envisioned a mysterious, celestial gate or doorway—something that beckoned you in as the prettiest star. The concept was also influenced by my time living alone in Brooklyn at 18, surrounded by snow-covered, abandoned churches in the New York winter.
was a supplementary line released alongside a zine of the same name, with the featured graphic also serving as the zine’s cover. The illustration is a direct depiction of the Cabaret de l’Enfer, a famous hell-themed cabaret in late 19th-century Paris.
