Highsnobiety’s Honors Week is a celebration of the women particularly the trans and BIPOC women who have pushed our culture forward. This Women’s History Month, we’ve tapped six guest curators to go deep on the issues they care about and to spotlight their favorite women and nonbinary creators.
Today, we re kicking off Honors Week with Amrita Hepi, a Bundjalung and Ngāpuhi choreographer and activist making art with experimental dance. In many ways, we couldn t have chosen a more fitting creator to inaugurate a week devoted to championing BIPOC women and non-binary changemakers.
