I Have This Theory...
That I’m a perpetual blank canvas.
Whenever I’m around someone or a group of someones (not a real word, I know) I’ll pick up their interests and stories and bits of pieces of who they are and become that. I feel this really obvious shift in myself when I’m around someone and then minutes later, someone else.

She commissions emerging and established artists to create rugs that she sells in limited editions. I use the word...
