Why are we so rude? is inspired by the vision of a post-plastic world — a world in which precious resources are no longer discarded, but carefully transformed.
We produce, consume, and dispose — at an ever-increasing rate.
For a long time, this rhythm has shaped the world around us.
Why are we so rude? is inspired by the vision of a post-plastic world — a world in which precious resources are no longer discarded, but carefully transformed. What once seemed insignificant, waste — discarded clothing, fabric scraps, loose threads — becomes the foundation of something new.
These remnants are cut, unraveled, and shredded, slowly released from their original form. Through the use of natural binders such as alginate and methylcellulose, they come
together again — transformed into new textile surfaces.
A vibrant aesthetic emerges: a vivid interplay of rich textures, shifting proportions, and unexpected material combinations. Bright colors and sharp contrasts create dynamic pattern worlds.
The garments are crafted as singular, three-dimensional forms.
They resemble delicate cocoons. In the light, fine residues of alginate begin to shimmer, holding together fragile, semi-transparent layers of unraveled knitwear.
Within this system, nothing is lost. All materials remain in circulation, forming a closed loop — where resources are continuously renewed rather than wasted.
I invite you to step into a colorful, post-fossil future of sharing and togetherness.
