Amy Schiappa, owner + founder of Fringe Salon messaged Konstance the first week she had seen her goddess painted on the boards in Soho on instagram. Amy hadn’t been in Manhattan for almost two months let alone been able to open the doors the salon quite yet.
Everything felt uncertain. Amy asked her if she wanted to do an art show with live music, and she said “yes let’s talk tomorrow in person.”
They met on Broome St, and began to share their experiences. They decided to do a live music show right on the street + she was going to ask her friend to play. Honeychild who has been in LES punk rock scene and they just happened to know a lot of the same people.
It felt like community.
We decided not to invite people : it was too risky and we felt it was more for people passing through. And, we wanted it to be organic but we needed an extension cord for the mic.
