Q & A with Masum:

How did you hear about Sable?
I heard about sable from Facebook and through a mutual friend from while I was at Skidmore.

What inspires you to make art?
People around myself

What is your spirit vegetable and why?
I am a carrot because carrots are bright and rooted and sweet. Carrots go well with a lot of things and make you smile.

If you could have any super power what it would be?
If I could have a superpower I would be control over clouds. I could be anywhere, make it rain where it’s needed, also providing drinking water where necessary.
