22-year old director and photographer India Sleem may have been born and raised in Manchester, but these days, she calls New York home. “I come from a family who always encouraged creativity through fashion, music, and art,” India explains of her education in visual art. “I was first introduced to photography at a young age, and would take photos of my Gran and her friends at their lunch club. I started being interested in filmmaking soon after that. I was obsessed with watching old music videos — Janet Jackson, M.I.A, Grace Jones. I loved the style and cinematography, but it didn’t hit me till later on in life that I could actually pursue it all as a career.”
