Kitty eats Thanksgiving turkey at The Grumpy Pig, Shanghai, China.

Please meet Kitty Von-Sometime, founder and director of The Weird Girls Project, DJ/professional party thrower and blogger of all things Iceland.

It was a joy to come across Kitty during her recent visit to Shanghai. She was in town to seize some art opportunities and I had the benefit of meeting her through a few delightful mutual friends.

Kitty has a particular love for “cats and spandex” and applies her love for the latter quite heartily on her fantastic initiative - The Weird Girls Project. With TWGP she tackles the issues that women can have with their bodies through wonderfully documented performances. The video and photography footage from these shoots range the absurd to the awe-inspiring (well, they’re all pretty deserving of awe). Now 16 ‘episodes’ in she has also shot a special for UN women, see a behind the scenes video here.

But (as we love on SHE EATS HERE!) this is not all. Kitty writes a well-traversed blog that catalogues her migration from the UK to Iceland, was a super producer for the formidable CCP (creators of EVE Online), had a good fling hosting 90s music theme parties, and is the mother of a young three year old to boot.

And she also grows a mean tomato!
