The French house's latest podcast episode tackles Black femininity and representation with Mickalene Thomas.
has featured conversations with a multitude of women artists from Penny Slinger to Judy Chicago. The latest interview in its Feminist Art series puts a spotlight on Black visual artist Mickalene Thomas.
"She knows exactly what she wants, and she's so connected to culture, politics, and society and people, and just in conversation, she's so aware of current events and just the world itself," Thomas says of Maria Grazia Chiuri, Dior's artistic director."And I think when you are in a position like she is, that all comes into the creativity. She just sees the world, and she wants to bring that into her conversation.
Monet has been a longtime inspiration for Thomas since her first projects with Dior, when she created reworked Lady Dior bags for two editions of the brand's Dior Lady Art series. Her 2019 design featured a patchwork garden, inspired by the painter's Giverny gardens and Christian Dior's love of flowers.
