I discovered Willy’s work in 2017 upon moving to NY. As a first generation Queer Mexican American constantly struggling with identity; I fully saw myself, my mother, my cousins, my sistah bros, my tia’s, my tio’s. I saw us in all of our glory. Dripped.
This was a proud moment to say the least.
Willy’s work is so beyond fashion.
It’s cultural legacy.
It’s us in the highest light.
Aminah, what a vessel you are.
I know the ancestors and spirit were gagged.
I love you❤️🔥
Thank you Willy for making her feel like the superstar she is.
