Re:Fashion – Sewing new things from old clothes
Workshop leader: Nähküche Linz
Items of clothing brought along are the starting material for new, creative ideas. A new look is created together and the realisation is supported with sewing techniques.
Basic sewing skills are required for this course.
Fast fashion and its negative effects on our environment are one of the major issues of our time. Clothes are usually only worn for a short time and then end up in landfill sites. We can change this by treating old clothes as a valuable resource and creating our own personal style with upcycling art.
Drawing a Thread
The former weaving and spinning mill Ebensee is the hub of the project, which addresses the history of the working world of women, role attributions, social achievements and controversies.
