Ongoing project

The Water We Wear

One of the most water-intensive and polluting industries in the world…

. By deconstructing and reconstructing discarded textiles, The Water We Wear symbolically slows down the cycle of fast fashion and recontextualizes materials through time, care, and labor.

This project is supported by the New Brunswick Arts Board
