About me

Feya Mattis aka 'bratlanice' is a multi-disciplinary artist and Fashion Marketing undergraduate from Greater Manchester. She calls attention to the interconnections that exist within the world. She constantly explores various disciplines to broaden her own understanding, and uses them to develop her skills as a marketing consultant and cultural curator. She believes creativity has enabled her to build a stronger perception of self, and she wants to share this understanding with others and encourage creatives to make. Her areas of interest are; marketing within the digital age, cultural curation and projects focused on children of the African Diaspora. In 2019, she founded Black in Fashion, as a direct response to the shortage in support for Black Northern creatives. Leading a team of 7, she is establishing a safe and sustainable network for Black creatives starting in the North, where they are free to express themselves without fear of censorship and judgement.
