Signe invited me over for dinner. I started cooking and reading books with her, and we became close friends. Because the school was closed down, we made our studios within our homes.”
She has travelled to a lot of countries in the world. According to her Instagram posts, she spent a semester studying abroad in France while attending SCAD. Since then, she has been to Greenland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Mexico, Italy, and, most recently, Tanzania.
