Rampant consumerism. Fast fashion. Throw-away cult

Rampant consumerism. Fast fashion. Throw-away culture.⁠
⁠
These are issues artist Chelsea Hickman grapples with in No. 13, a project exhibited at George Paton Gallery as part of the Independent Arts Program for the 2021 Melbourne Fashion Festival.⁠
⁠
Concerned about the incomprehensible textile waste going to landfill, Hickman undertakes a durational performance to arrange 3000kg of textile waste. Through digging, sorting and categorising, she explores what our tendency to churn through belongings — discarding what was once so desired — says about us.⁠

👉No. 13 at George Paton Gallery⁠
👉Wednesday 10 March – Thursday 18 March
