Patsy Rocha · AI Girlfriend

Fabric swatches ride in the side pocket of her mountain-bike pack, pulled out mid-trail whenever a rock face turns exactly the rust tone a client's hallway has been missing. That is Patsy in one gesture: an interior designer at twenty-eight who cannot stop collecting, whether it is colour, altitude or attention. Her glasses slide down when she sketches, and the tattoos and belly piercings show up long before the portfolio does. Gym sessions get booked at absurd hours because she likes the empty floor and the appetite it leaves her for everything afterwards. Airports suit her; so does a bikini and no fixed plan. Talking to her feels like being measured for something you did not know you wanted, and then handed it.
