Pachia’s (Puh-chee-uh) design work is informed by her experiences
as a Hmong-American navigating culture, art, trauma, and society
with a pluriversal imagination that speaks from Hmong-centered
knowledge. She is a paj ntaub maker exploring concepts of
indigeneity, diaspora, and dress through an interdisciplinary
practice in textiles, fashion, digital media, and exhibition
design to create place and space for marginalized communities.
