More quotes by Dawn Okoro

To me, a punk spirit is just living freely, disregarding societal norms and just being free to be themselves.

I want people to walk into the exhibition and feel like they belong. I hope they can feel the sense of movement and see themselves reflected in the pieces.

In my heart, I knew I wanted to do art, but there was still that drive to feel like I'm actually doing something with my life in a way that my family would understand.

Whatever I make is for myself first. And when I do that, it naturally resonates with whoever else it is also for.

I wanted so badly just to fit in and assimilate with what was acceptable. Which is hard because I felt like I was sticking out like a sore thumb. I wanted to be invisible.
