Through intricate hand embroidery and soft textiles, I explore the environmental crisis wrought by the fashion industry, particularly the fast fashion phenomenon. My aim is to spotlight the growing fashion and textiles waste crisis and its profound implications for the climate. I strive to create pieces that are jarring and intriguing, prompting viewers to rethink their retail habits and recognize the far-reaching impact of their choices. With each stitch and fold, I aim to instill a sense of urgency, urging individuals to opt for sustainable alternatives amidst a landscape where the production of clothing outpaces generations, 6 generations to be precise.
