Alyssa Low Has Always Blended Arts & Athletics

Alyssa Low is a multidisciplinary artist who—with a background in collegiate soccer and a well-established practice in murals and public art installations—has seen her work blanketing the Chicago skyline. She has teamed up with the Chicago Bulls, Chicago Blackhawks and the Chicago Fire FC to create collectibles that highlight her geometric designs and riotous colorways. Naturally, we thought it was high time she got into tennis so we asked her to create our first Lunar New Year collection. Usher in the Year of the Snake with our Racquet LNY drop: a tote, tee and poster series highlighting Alyssa’s striking and playful designs.

To that end, we’ve asked contributors and some of our favorite rec players for their opinions on the best courts and how to make the most of them.

She stopped by our Racquet House Silvertop party with one of the most memorable—and photogenic—deserts we'd ever seen, so we asked the chef herself to share a bit of her story, as well as the recipe for all you ambitious home cooks.
