An Interest in Science
Alice Potts, who links fashion and biotechnology, grew up with her twin brother in various cultural environments, including Yokohama. She initially had a strong interest in science and mathematics, but later shifted to textiles and fashion, beginning to build a career at the intersection of science and art. Reflecting on this, she comments, "As a child, I was a bit lost... I was drawn to science, but I was also attracted to the allure of textiles. I felt like textiles were like a second skin."
