Hvad går dit afgangsprojekt ud på? I mit afgangsprojekt 'RE: thinking hemp' har jeg beskæftiget mig med hamp som et bæredygtigt alternativ til fremstilling af tekstiler. Hamp har et stort udbyttepotentiale og hele planten kan udnyttes til fødevarer og medicin. Den måde man producerer tekstiler på i dag er stærkt miljøbelastende, da dyrkning og produktion af bomuld kræver et stort forbrug af sprøjtegifte og vand.

Hvad motiverede dig til at lave netop dette projekt? Jeg har arbejdet med hampegarner i håndvævede konstruktioner siden 2015, og har tidligere haft et virksomhedssamarbejde med designer Rachel Kollerup. Hun introducerede mig for projektet "Bæredygtige hampetekstiler", som skal bane vejen for en reel nordisk produktion af bæredygtige tekstiler af slidstærke højkvalitets metervarer baseret på hampefibre. Projektgruppen består af Teknologisk Institut, Rachel Kollerup, Kvadrat, Advance Nonwoven, Vittenbjerggård og Møllerup Gods og er ledet af seniorkonsulent på Agrotech Bodil Pallesen. Med inspiration fra dette projekt har det været min intention at undersøge mulighederne for at producere industrielt vævede tekstiler lavet af hampegarner, hvor både produktion og dyrkning af hampen finder sted inden for Europa.

Hvordan tilføjer dit projekt noget nyt til det felt du har beskæftiget dig med? I dag forbinder mange hampetekstil med en grov, mat og ru kvalitet. Det har været mit mål at skabe hampegarn der er mere tiltalende og delikat, bl.a. ved at arbejde med farvevalg og overordnet design af de vævede tekstiler.

Jeg har arbejdet med lys som inspiration for at skabe kontrast til hampens matte overflade. Dette har jeg gjort med et optisk vævningssystem, hvor jeg har skabt nuancer og gradueringer ved hjælp af trådene på væven. De vævede tekstiler integrerer og kommunikerer med lyset fra omgivelserne i overfladen af ​​det vævede hampegarn – og afhængigt af lysindfald og afstand ændrer tekstilet karakter.

Hvor kan du forestille dig at dit afgangsprojekt vil gøre en forskel? Jeg har et ønske om at forbedre og bidrage til en mere bæredygtig tekstilindustri. Hamp er en god fiber, som har potentiale til at erstatte bomuld i tekstilproduktion: Hvor bomuld udpiner jorden, har hampeplanten lange stærke rødder som kan forbedre jordstrukturen. Hampplanten tilfører næringsstoffer til jorden, og kan dyrkes på den samme mark i flere år uden nogen form for gødning. På den måde reducerer den jordtab og bekæmper erosion. Samtidig kræver hamp kun sjældent kunstvanding, modsat bomuld der har et meget højt forbrug af vand.

 A spot touting the perfume opens with an almost pornographically vivid shot of dead flowers and moldy fruit tumbling over fertile soil. Earthworms take residence, winding through fleshy waste. A voiceover recites, “Trash, but never waste. The most wanted scent, made from the unwanted: Etat Libre d’Orange.”

Burberry

For one, changing consumer mindsets have led to brands becoming more answerable. In July, British luxury label Burberry found itself in deep waters when news broke that the brand had destroyed £28.6 million (around ₹270 crore) worth of products that had been unsold in the fiscal year 2017. In response, the brand’s CEO Marco Gobbetti announced in an interview with digital publication Business Of Fashion that they would stop burning unsold goods. He also confirmed that the brand would stop using fur, joining other cruelty-conscious labels like Versace, Gucci and Tom Ford.

This is a typically 2018 response. As former UN deputy secretary-general Louise Fréchette wrote in a foreword to a report titled Environmental Sustainability And The Financial Crisis: Linkages And Policy Recommendations, “We see remarkable overlap and interconnectedness between the global financial crisis on one hand, and emerging and escalating environment and resource issues on the other.”

Case: Clark Fork River

Montana in the US holds the nations largest hazardous waste site: a 12o mile stretch of the Clark Fork River that passes over land contaminated with arsenic, lead, copper, mercury, cadmium and pentachlorophenol - a century’s worth of mining wastes. A humongous flood washed about 4.5 million cubic meters of mine tailings that spread a chock full of arsenic and toxic heavy metals into the Clark Fork River. A dam next to it saved the water from going into the Pacific Ocean which would of been a super toxic mess. 160 km of the river was all toxic now to this day, when it happened some of the toxic waste leached into the groundwater and that started polluting nearby residents wells. Now they are trying to restore it through conservation biologic methods and restoration ecology. Due to the waste, half of the fish population died.

Cellulose acetate

Cellulose acetate are made by extracting cellulose fibers from cotton and wood pulp to create a transparent paste. This paste can then be colored, processed, and molded for a variety of industrial applications. For this jewelry, it is cut from a large block into thin sheets, and then cut again into smaller rectangular blocks.
