The Making of Black Magic Leopard
In today\u2019s episode Lisa is joined by Queenora Irvin and Janine Lecour, the makers of Black Magic Leopard. Black Magic Leopard is an amazing fabric that looks like leopard print from a distance, but when you get close up, it is actually images of Black folks in natural hairstyles. It was designed by two Black women: Queenora who saw an optical illusion, and Janine who made that optical illusion into reality. They discuss the creative process, collaboration with other artists, and seeing a project through from the initial idea to the response from the community it was made for.
