OF COLOUR AND COMPANY

Method to the madness or madness as the method? Ask Arpana Rayamajhi and she’ll tell you that the answer lurks somewhere in-between. “There is an order to how I dress, despite the assorted nature of the things I wear. But a little madness is always necessary for any creative endeavour,” declares the Kathmandu-born and New York-based multidisciplinary artist. If you haven’t scrolled through the merry mosaic of colours, prints and patterns on her Instagram profile yet, your mood board is missing a trick. There is no pandemic-induced censoring of her instincts, no functionality-over-frivolity approach to fashion. Instead, her compulsive use of colour means that you’ll notice her from across the room or even a crowded New York sidewalk.
