ou know that phrase, the one that is all about location? Well, when I went to Garth Walker's artist talk on Wednesday, March 2, it was clear that his designs were very evidently based in Durban, South America. His location is especially important since one of the most prominent themes he explores through his designs is identity, which is very closely interrelated to a person's sense of place: "What makes me African – and what does that look like?"
