With „Alchemy of clothing“ a lecture performance and workshop by Dr.Ida-Marie Corell, she offers a new philosophical approach to the understanding of consume and usage.
In times of overconsumption and our global throw away plastic society,
of separation between insanely
rich and insane poverty,
in times of loss of dignity
and officially
abuse
of news
in times of fakes
and in times of poisoned lakes …
Recycling turns things into other things wich is like magic.
