Not the mythological kind. The ones who made you believe something was possible. The artist whose work stopped you in your tracks. The mentor who said the right thing at the right moment. The person you’ve never met but who shaped how you think, work, and see the world.

This Monday, we’re talking about the people who inspire us, our heroes, our references, our invisible teachers. Who are they? What did they give you? And what does it mean to carry someone’s influence into your own practice?

Come ready to share. Bring a name, a work, a story, a quote. Let’s build a collective portrait of the people who brought us here.
