このコンテンツについて
Artist and former Apple exec Windy Chien joins Closet Philosophy this week to talk about how she left a high-profile tech job to follow a totally different thread—literally. Windy became world-renowned for her intricate and sculptural knot work, which she began exploring during her transformative project The Year of Knots.
In this conversation, we dive into the parallels between fiber and fashion, the deeper meaning of making things with your hands, and how creativity becomes a form of identity, discipline, and even rebellion.
We explore:
- How tying knots helped Windy reclaim authorship of her life
- The connection between personal style and artistic voice
- Why repetition is powerful—and not boring
- What it means to be a beginner on purpose
- What she loves about getting older (and no one tells you about)
- And why constraints can be the key to freedom
Windy also shares her take on aging, being a late bloomer, and how we don’t need to retire our style as we get older.
