Rachel Ara: VARI Emedded Resident photo

Visit Rachel Ara in her studio to find out about her research into the data the V&A holds about its collections and beyond. Her work is nonconformist with a socio-political edge that often incorporates humour and irony with feminist and queer concerns. Ara will combine her systems, craft and fine art skills to produce a response to the hidden narratives of the data and how it came to be.
