Alternative Space, Log 5: Rosie Johnson
Rosie Johnson is a space artist, designer, and unapologetic advocate for individuality in the space industry. Through bold self-expression and imaginative storytelling, she’s challenging the idea of what space professionals should look like—and inviting everyone to take up space, both literally and figuratively.
In this episode hosted by Amy, Rosie joins us to talk about her journey into the world of space art, the inspiration behind her cosmic fashion and jewelry brand Planet Exophilia, and her latest mission to build community and connection through Her Cosmic Orbit. We also touch on her favorite local haunts like Sky Bar in Tucson, the importance of representation in the industry, and organizations paving the way for a more inclusive cosmos.
