Slash and burn transitional womenswear collection

‘I want you to act like you would in a crisis, I want you to act like your house is on fire because it is’ – Greta Thunberg, 2019.

‘Slash and burn’ is a transitional textiles collection inspired by
Deforestation and climate change. It captures the intense burning, destruction and devastation of the tropical forests being destroyed as well as
The ashy desolation and after effects.
Portraying a surreal and burning planet through my own photography and energetic smoky artwork, I have created a contemporary collection for womenswear in the hope of raising awareness
About the devastation and destruction we are causing to the planet.
