Yamuna Forzani is an artist, designer and LGBTQIA+ activist. During her studies at the KABK in The Hague (2012-2016) she started developing colorful fabrics with challenging prints and graffiti-inspired tags in the TextielLab. The outfits she creates with these fabrics serve as a form of personal expression and are inspired by the ballroom scene (LGBTQIA+ subculture in which performance, music and fashion come together), of which Forzani herself is a part. Her visual language plays with the body and sexuality, the psychedelic aesthetics of the 1960s, the current visual culture of social media and kitsch.
