Statement

As an Afro-Latina relearning my identity, I sought a reflection of myself in others that looked like me. Fashion and visual media were not ‘mirrors’ of authentic representation. MIRROR challenges the viewer not to seek their representation in the reflection of others but in the reflections of themselves. Six models of the Black and Latinx diaspora were interviewed and asked how they would want to see themselves reflected. Their stories inspired editorial photoshoots with the models, then those photos were printed on fabrics and designed into a fashion collection; that debuted in May 2020 within the digitally redesigned 2020 MICA Experimental Fashion Show. The culmination of the project is recorded in MIRROR Magazine, a self-published collection of fashion, photography, and stories that are “a reflection of the Black and Latinx Diaspora.”
