    Fast fashion dominates our landscape & landfills. Slow Fashion is often stereotyped as boring, shapeless, and prohibitively expensive. This exhibit seeks to explore the environmental challenges of what we wear now and asks how we might wear our clothes in a not only sustainable, but also restorative future.

    The Speed of Fashion is a national call looking for artwork exploring fashion and fibers in an environmental and climate justice context, with an emphasis on solutions-centered work. We are looking for work that investigates the environmental and ethical issues around the current state of fashion– from textile production to labor issues to consumer waste in the fashion industry.​

    Critically, we are looking for work that imagines and explores solutions to the world of fashion, whether speculative or already in action. We are especially interested in work that celebrates existing, under-appreciated solutions, such as DIY attitudes in alternative subcultures, and slow fashion that may be inherent to a cultural dress.Fibers work will be the heart of this show, but any artwork exploring fashion or fibers in a climate justice context as a theme is welcome. This is a national call to artists residing in the United States.
