In what ways does nature inspire or inform your work?
I try to follow the threads of our clothes to inform my work. When you trace them back, those threads come from our beautiful Earth.
What does it mean to you to be part of a thriving ecosystem?
It’s one where we see ourselves as citizens, not consumers.
