PRABAL GURUNG SS23 SHOW NOTES 🤍 VOYEURISM (NOUN): THE ACT OF WATCHING PEOPLE WITHOUT SEEING THEM. THIS IS MY CELEBRATION OF THOSE WHO ARE SO OFTEN WATCHED—ON SUBWAYS, ACROSS THE BRIDGE, IN CORNERS—AND NEVER SEEN. THE ONES WHOSE NAMES YOU NEVER KNOW—BUT WHOSE DEFIANT ACTIONS YOU CAN NEVER FORGET. TO THE ONES WHO ARE DEMONISED BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT UNDERSTOOD IN GENDERS, IN COLORS, IN PLACES, AND IN VALUES THAT OTHERS KNOW: ON THIS RUNWAY, KNOW THAT WE ARE NO LONGER WATCHING YOU—WE ARE SEEING YOU. WHY? BECAUSE WE ARE NOT FOR THEM. WE’RE OURS.
