This summer the WSC project goes USA! The world skin colors scarves will be shown during the New York International gift fair at the Tuttobene stand. The NYIGF Blog wrote a post about it.
The WSC Scarves turn demographic data into a visual language, and then into fashion.
Each of the 231 scarves is unique because each country generates its own data. The scarves reveal relationships, histories, and patterns of populations; they tell stories that you can fold, twist, drape, hang, or wear; stories to contemplate, discuss, or retell.
Available for every country in the world.
I create the conditions for these layers of information to interact visually. The beauty, for me, lies in the surprises — the unexpected ways in which these shapes and colors come together.
