there is so much pain and in the fight for black lives matter and the control on police brutality and how much of an issue this still is. everyday people are being killed and it wasn't until recently could we document the level of abuse was going on. it still worries me when i see these photos because it makes me think back to George Floyd and how major that was in the news and social media. It was a massive movement and people were trying to push for black business and awareness and in not even two years we are hardly talking about all the brutality that still is going on and the level of racism, it was purely a trend. being mixed myself it is not something i can forget or neglect it still needs our attention and black artists like myself need a chance to show our work and send our messages out there in the world. there is so much work that needs to be done a pressure we still need to push if not this will never end and no one will ever learn

You can also see quite clearly the "trends" or how much these events affect our world whether that be in social media, stereotypes, movements and art. it even affects the uk even though it is no where close. I am from canada so it is a little bit more involved but being hear has given be another perspective on america and the events that go on there

At this art exhibit they show multiple different american crisis over the years mostly to due with race but also politics which is basically the main topics in america. to see so many different major event documented by photos you really see the similarities and differences over the years and events. Mostly you kinda worry how crazy some of these riots were and the differences in how they behave depending on the crowd.

where i work in soho there are so many cool people that have such strong personalities and it shines through their clothes. I would love to photograph all the people i come across and use them for inspiration for my designs and finding my own design identity

I find it quite inspiring that this artist going around and takes inspiration from people around london. It makes me want to find inspiration by the things that surround me and the unique people that are here in london

This art gallery was full of portraits. Most inspired by strangers. This artist takes bits from individuals or solely inspired by certain people and turns them into their or characters breaking any stereotypes they might see at first sight  and bridging peoples diversities and seeing all the similarities there are within such a huge city full of people from all over the world.

we also went over how to fuse/tape the edge of this super finicky fabric being able to conceal it and create a clean edge. It's always good to practice these techniques cause it will make you a stronger seamstress  and overall better designer if you know these important skills.

I was able to see first hand how to work with this delicate organza and do seams that you would use in the industry. The 'french seam' was something I had done before but needed help and practice on. It was very helpful to go over this in the atelier  with Jacks tutorial and help. It's super important to take your time and pin or tack as much as possible.

During my sewing workshop it was very helpful to be able to witness in person a professional tailor work with such delicate fabrics but with the same level of precision.
