twilley was a spice girls fan.

after last week's media assignment & starting to think about things that are inextricable when it comes to who we are & the content of the art we end up making... one of, i think, the most obvious factors for many of us in the class is being a girl! & trying to make it as an artist. (my apologies to anyone this post alienates *coughstevecough*).
it's not something i planned but i feel fortunate to be in an environment where i'm surrounded by so many talented young women (& fellas) where our viewpoints are embraced & encouraged in finding our voices as artists regardless of gender & how much or how little that plays an active role in the work that we make. I also found an interesting point in that it is up to each of us to tell our own stories because nobody else can & besides, what else do we truly know?
So speaking of girls, one of my favorite shows is HBO's GIRLS despite the controversy over it's lack of diversity & regardless of how true that is lol i kind of adore Lena Duhnam & admire her success...
