Before cat-eye glasses were a fashion staple, they were a radical act of design — and behind them was Altina Schinasi: sculptor, filmmaker, inventor, and unapologetic creative force. In this episode, Stauney and Sadie follow Altina’s kaleidoscopic life, from designing the iconic harlequin frame to creating politically charged art and championing social causes. A daughter of immigrants who defied expectations at every turn, Altina made a spectacle of herself in all the best ways — shaping not just how we look, but how we see. Join us as we explore the bold vision of a woman who refused to stay in the lines — and made the world a little sharper because of it.
