    Description

    Workshop was part of A Season of Peace Building, programmed with Grace Ndiritu for The Ignorant Art School Sit-in Curriculum #5, curated by Hao, and facilitated by Rachel Siobhán Tyler. The workshop was delivered in collaboration with V&A Dundee.

    This workshop took inspiration from COVERSLUT©, Ndiritu’s fashion brand founded in 2016. COVERSLUT© integrates capitalist, Pay What You Can (PWYC) and environmental/ethical strategies into its economic framework, and was focused on dealing with issues of race, gender, and class politics. The workshop collaboratively considered how ethos central to COVERSLUT© can help us envision new ways of designing together—and will ask: “who has the right to be fashionable?”
