Profile: Dirty Nurse
age: 22
hometown: walnut creek, ca
now live: new york city
where would you most like to live: tokyo and berlin are really amazing. if i spoke the language fluently i might go back to either city. i'm learning swedish this fall and want to visit stockholm soon. i love traveling but i think new york fits me best.
who was your first "hero" in life? i was involved in gymnastics growing up and was completely obsessed with nadia comaneci. her dedication and skill were really inspiring and impressionable. i still love that vintage sports / olympics aesthetic. i want my apartment to look like a 1970's gym with racing stripes, primary colors, and gold medals.
what is your favorite thing to do on your day off from work: flea markets and booze
what is your favorite color: red
who (or what) do you love? fast food iconography, keyboards, kure kure takora, jim houser and julie verhoeven, things that look cute but are actually really dark or demented, 60s design and fashion, stripes, and cult films like the forbidden zone or daisies.
who /what are some of your influences: wallpaper and clothing patterns, vintage children's books, teen culture, old punk records and posters, outsider art and obsessive compulsive drawings, suburbia, artists like aurbrey beardsley, peter max, rita ackerman, henrik drescher, clayton brothers, andy ward, and margaret kilgallen.
