Come along to Mammoth to celebrate the launch of Fashion Fictions: Imagining Sustainable Worlds, a new open access book authored by Professor Amy Twigger Holroyd from Nottingham School of Art & Design.
Arising from the international participatory project of the same name, Fashion Fictions presents a kaleidoscope of crowdsourced responses to an open-ended prompt that asks participants to dream up and enact alternative fashion systems and examines common themes that can be identified in these responses, from nature and spirituality to language, togetherness and adaptation.
This special evening will feature Amy talking about the book with Michelle Leonforte from Nottingham City of Literature; the screening of two short films that provide a window into two very different Fashion Fictions enactments; and the opportunity to get involved by remixing existing fictions to create your very own utopian fashion system.
