ART D’ECO will exhibits at hochZEITEN !/Postdam/Germany

ART D’ECO / Collective exhibition  hochZEITEN !, castle of Belvedere, Postdam, Germany. April 26^th /Oct.

 

ART D’ECO will take part in the exhibition named  Marriages at the Belvedere castle in Postdam ,near Berlin ,  Germany.  A wedding dress in paper/fabric will be exhibited.

 For the  “one-time-use-dress” I have used paper /fabric. It was specially made for the dress with left overs cotton fabric and old lace I removed from old clothes of mine.  The paper pulp is also made of textile rags, rejects of production.  So this wedding dress is disposable and  100% re-used material.

It is low tech’ as it requires no heavy machinery, not even power.  The paper can be made mechanically and  the dress sewn with a  domestic sewing machine .  says Katell Gelebart, ecodesigner
