Fashion & Disability

Circe Henestrosa is working on the topic of Fashion Curation and Disability for her PhD. As part of her research, in 2018, Henestrosa presented her exhibition Frida Kahlo: Making Her Self Up at the Victoria and Albert Museum addressing Kahlo’s construction of identity through disability and ethnicity. A publication with the same title has been published. An iteration of this exhibition entitled Appearances Can Be Deceiving, was adapted and presented by Henestoa at the Brooklyn Museum in New York in 2019.
