You are allowed to become.
Built Not Born features Frankenstein’s Creature with needle and thread in hand, repairing his own body one stitch at a time.
Created from pieces chosen by someone else, the Creature has always raised questions about identity, autonomy, and what makes someone fully themselves. Here, he takes the work into his own hands. The stitches are no longer simply evidence of how he was made—they are part of how he chooses to remake himself.
A design about monsters, transformation, and the possibility that who you become can matter more than how you began.
For Frankenstein readers, gothic horror fans, and anyone who has ever had a hand in making themselves into the person they were meant to be.
Built, not born. Still becoming.
