Amara Leipzig
Amara is an illustrator, writer, and a textiles maker for Forgotten Hand Studio - a small Queer-Run business focusing on furniture, textiles, and wall decor. Born from a love of materiality and dedication to fine craftsmanship, Amara believes their work is a response to our culture’s consumption of quickly produced, and discarded, items. Centralized on imbuing new life into reclaimed and vintage materials, it is a small and local response to climate change. Each piece is uniquely created by Amara Leipzig in Los Angeles, CA.
