Sebastián discusses growing up between Long Island and Queens. She recounts stories of sneaking into the NYC drag club scene through the early 2010s, bridging her love of extreme drag into critical cultural theory, her art practice as a sculptor and performer, and her time in college at Brown and RISD. This interview was conducted on Sebastián's first day of a summer internship with the NYC Trans Oral History Project.
