Hardwire was founded in Dallas, Texas by Caitlyn Sturgis — but her journey as an artist started long before that. Painting since the age of five, Caitlyn has always seen the world through a creative lens. Throughout school, art was her chosen space, and in high school, it became her sanctuary. With the support of an inspiring art teacher and the freedom to escape into the studio, she found not just talent — but purpose.

Hardwire is a reflection of that journey: personal, evolving, and deeply human. It’s a space where emotion meets expression, and where every piece invites a different meaning for every person. As Caitlyn continues to explore new mediums, Hardwire grows with her — soon expanding into one-of-a-kind, thrifted couture clothing, transforming wearable pieces into walking works of art.

This isn’t just a brand. It’s a story still being written — one brushstroke, one thread, one feeling at a time.
