Gurtie Hansell – Kangmankey
Gurtie Hansell is the sole-proprietor of the gender-expansive streetwear brand Kangmankey, which they started in 2015 to outfit their community for pageantry, protest, and pleasure. They are also a multimedia artist, instructor, and wardrobe/set designer working from their home studio and backyard in Chicago. Drawing on fashion, printmaking, and graphic design, their wearables are deeply inspired by decades in queer nightlife, camp craft, and generally being loud in public.
