Tutor
Lydia Garnett
Lydia Garnett is a creative based in East London. Focusing on style and subculture, they craft intimate and sometimes surreal storytelling rooted in a collision of ritual, collectivity and play. Garnett is deftly attuned to the nuanced intersections of fashion and identity as told through the codes of underground culture—that haircut, those boots, this chain—using them to inform projects on everything from the erotic allure of the library to the fandom of women’s football.
