Bobbi Gibb

A collection inspired by Bobbi Gibb — the first woman to run the Boston Marathon unofficially after being told women were not capable of enduring the distance.

What makes her story extraordinary is that she returned again and again, running multiple marathons without an official number on her chest. She didn’t run for recognition. She ran because she knew she could.

These pieces explore the tension between limitation and possibility through layered typography, historic imagery, and the quiet courage required to challenge what society accepts as truth.
