May was, for lack of a better word, random. I went on national television, sat across from Al Sharpton, and talked about the Met Gala. I went to a lot of exhibition openings, spent a lot of time in museums, looked at a lot of fashion, and even made some of my own.

I was honored to have contributed in an advisory capacity to the Vilcek Foundation @vilcekfoundation for their fashion and culture prizes, which were recently awarded. This was the first time the Vilcek Foundation instituted prizes specifically for fashion and culture, alongside those in fashion design.

It was particularly meaningful to me, as I have long argued that fashion should be understood as being on par with other aspects of visual and material culture as an influential part of culture as opposed to simply reflecting what gets made elsewhere. In line with the foundation’s mission, the prizes were reserved for immigrants, which of course made it even more significant to me as an immigrant to the US, especially considering the increasingly xenophobic and anti-immigration climate.

It was such a pleasure to celebrate the prize winners last week: Tanya Meléndez-Escalante, @tanya.melendez.fashion. Diego Bendezu @diegobendezu Jalan and Jibril Durimel @durimel and Natalie Nudell @natalien__ Thank you to the jury, the staff of the Vilcek Foundation and in particular its indefatigable president Rick Kinsel @rick.kinsel.
