This strategy explored how replacing systems of production with less energy consuming and smarter technologies to reduce environmental impacts. That are not only better for environment but are also maintainable. If we want to produce garments which are more ecologically friendly then we should make sure that all the procedures used in the design process are cleaner and better than before.
Example:
- Bio-based materials and processes
- 3-D printing
- Laser
- Water-jet
- Sonic cutting
- Sonic welding
- Digital printing
- 'Re-surfacing' of polyester
- Novel dying technologies
- Digital finishing
- Tagging
Ever & Again (2007)
This project experimented with sonic cutting and slitting to reshape the shirts, and fusing digital sublimation printing with heat photogram printing. For This she had to translate her heat photogram print design, which used real objects like wire and leaves, into digital repeat using photoshop.
After I read her project, I explored some research of photogram print as well. I came to realize it was an economic and ecological way of printing as a little waste was generated from the process but they made a short time to process it as well. For this a reason that made me interested and like in digital printing and some technology that can related to created textile. For instant, laser cutting, 3-D printing, digital textile, heat pressing, and heat pleating as well.
In order to, make mark-making, sometime I would like to choose heat transfer color papers and polyester as a medium for made fabric in design. Moreover, I like this technique, because sometime you will get the different outcome which you are not realize than before. And you never know what kind of result you can get.
My inspired most is consider rethinking the up cycling fabrics, developing them in order to make people close to nature than before. That is a good way which people could get inspirations from nature/environment. In my opinion, now a day textile is not only create some beautiful fabric but also thinking about how are they combination between technologies and science together. Further more some of new technology can created new and amazing garments that consumer unexpected before.
