Embracing the unexpected: Rebecca Ogilvie on creating The Detour CO

"I love using skin as an opportunity to connect or disconnect, whatever you're looking for."

”That shift from pushing the boulder to feeling more supported in the work and through the community that I've been surrounded by and created? That's a really cool, really, really cool place to be."

- Rebecca Ogilvie, creator of The Detour CO
