Fashion Forward: Exhibition and Conversation

Fall 2021 saw the exhibitions Fashion Forward and ¡Adelante Siempre! curated by Hitoko Okada on view at WAHC (Workers Arts and Heritage Centre) in Hamilton, Canada. I had work on display in both shows and participated in two events during the exhibition run: “Fashion Forward a Conversation on re-fashioning sustainability as a relational ecosystem”, a conversation between Sage Paul, Hitoko Okada, and me co-hosted with X University’s Fashion Program at the Creative School; and a “Wash ‘n Care Workshop” where I led participants through the Wash ‘n Care project.

WAHC has produced a beautiful eight minute video tour of both exhibitions narrated by Hitoko Okada that outlines key themes in both exhibitions.
