Azania Tripp (She/Her), is a Black/ African American, Singaporean Eurasian, pansexual woman who hand-cuts paper to create one-of-a-kind wearable collage pieces. She started making wearable collage art in 2016 because she needed to wear something on her body that made her feel stronger than how she felt. The wearable art pieces tell a story of historical trauma and how afro-futurism and joy are the centers of healing. Azania uses recycled paper, beads, glass, and coats her work in resin.
