Dara Holzman — "Empowering women to view themselves as living works of art."

“Dara is an artist cum fashionista who approaches her work with a
mixture of irony and humor. Record Pop Tops are wearable works of art that allow a living confrontation with the centrality of pop culture to our
contemporary notions of entertainment, life and personality.

“Dara has found a new use for the 45 record – reinterpreting the
rarities of flipsides into a fashion statement. More importantly, Dara has placed the female body central in the understanding of pop culture's power to define personality.”

—Renee Vara, Art Curator
