Wild Dress
Zoë Svendsen, Kate Fletcher and Carolyn Downing
An immersive sonic work set in the grounds of Hawkwood, that explores wilderness, landscape and our place within it, through the medium of clothing.
Weaving together stories and essays by Professor of Sustainable Fashion, Kate Fletcher, Wild Dress teases us towards a transformation in human-nature relations. Wild Dress was first published as a book in 2019, by Uniform Books.
Wild Dress will be launched on May Day at Hawkwood Centre for Future Thinking as part of their May Day festival, with an interactive performance installation created in collaboration with Stroud-based artists Emily Joy and Alison Cockcroft (Periscope) and Nicola Builder (Wayward Weaves) – and performer Tamzin Griffin.
Kate and Zoë will be giving a talk and Q&A, sharing the process of creating Wild Dress, at 2.30pm, in the main hall.
