ARTIST STATEMENTmiss velvet cream : for tomorrows urban nomadsmiss velvet cream is the neo-archaic, pieces that embody silhouettes of the past with dreams of the future, all bridged by the conscious present. miss velvet cream is guided by aesthetics of construction and design that are individualized, craft-intensive and on the whole, defy mainstream commodification. in this culture, creating quality, hand-crafted garments is a statement against mass-production and big corporations. i feel it is more important now than ever for designers to make something unique, something precious that cannot be copied. i'd like to see conscientious consumption in our society. i'd like to see artisans recognized and respected for their essential contribution to culture. i am committed to local economies, global communities and respect for the individual. 2008 : san francisco
