http:// according to a mckinsey 2019 report, the average person today spends 60% more money on new clothing than they did 15 years ago and is keeping them for half as long // The pandemic has created extra overproduction with rampant discounting.. which means when a new t-shirt costs less than a sandwich, someone is paying the price elsewhere. Fashion industries are reconditioning consumer’s thinking process when they make purchases online - and in the wrong direction in the long run // let’s think differently about our clothing and materials reuse and upcycle. #salvagedwood #slashstamp #upcycledclothing #recycledclothing #wearableart #wearablewood #clothingindustry #bcartist #artist #canadaart #vancouverislandartist #woodprints #original
