Hawa Drammeh

Hawa’s fellowship will take her across Asia, South America, and Africa in pursuit of a single question: what does it mean to make something with care? She is drawn to those who devote time and intention to their craft whether through textiles, metalwork, pottery, design, technology, or entrepreneurship and is especially curious about how culture and lived experience shape what we create. Through solo travel, she hopes to slow down, listen closely, and learn from people whose work often goes unseen, carrying those lessons into how she builds in her own life.
