Lae Agualo.
Lae Agualo is a visual artist, chocolate-maker, and founder of Secco Dreams Studio. Their style can be described as mischief-making meets a playground of tufted textiles, multimedia clay, and more. Lae’s cultural patchwork draws from Guam, Laos, Vietnam, and America. Born in Northern California, the artist was raised in the Montagnard community of Greensboro, North Carolina.
