FAST>FORWARD>>FASHION explores the world we live in today, where fashion often speeds by. My work aims to hit the pause button, encouraging a slower, more thoughtful interaction with what we wear, glimpsing what could be. Conscious Consumption: The Denim Dilemma, reflects on the excessive water use it takes to create just one pair of denim jeans. My commitment to sustainability is reflected in how I source my materials—rescuing the discarded, the overlooked, and the unused. You won’t find piles of unused materials destined for landfill in my studio. Instead, you’ll see bins brimming with scraps of fabric, old clothes waiting for a new breath of life, and tools that help me turn the discarded into the cherished. My pieces are designed not just to be worn, but to provoke thought, evoke concern, and inspire action. They challenge the throwaway culture and champion the beauty of reuse and lasting value. Through my work, I invite viewers to reconsider their own habits and to join me in a movement towards a more sustainable, fashion-forward future.
