Regeneration, 2017
Collection of clothes.
‘Regeneration’ was a collection of clothes that featured low-resolution images of buildings across the world being demolished. I printed these onto recycled fabrics. My aim was to draw links between the perpetual march of fashion, which affects both what we wear and our urban landscapes. What does it mean to upcycle, recycle, or regenerate? The images were sourced online and were unofficial images, taken by individuals across the world who had gone to watch the spectacle of buildings being exploded. The clothes formed the basis of a catwalk show performance; turning the images once more into an embodied spectacle.
