Free Fashion Exhibit, Thursday, Sept. 17:
The exhibition @viral_re_collection, curated by Abby Fogle and Esau Betancourt, “examines the interdependencies of desire, digital images, and physical clothing objects in mass production consumer markets.” Works by artist Jenna Boyles, sculptor Erin Smego, and fashion designer Kate Walz for Querencia Studio ask the viewer to question how they consume and suggest alternatives to clothing consumption in the future.
