Interactive Signed Fine Art Print featuring the "Sustainable Fashion" mural created by artist
Emily Ding and curated by Street Art for Mankind (SAM) in New York.
The mural is part of the first
Climate Action Outdoor Museum created in partnership with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and was unveiled during Climate Week and the UN General Assembly. It is also an important addition to SAM's worldwide
Ecosystem Restoration Murals series.
The purpose of this poetic piece painted an impressionist style, is to reflect on our fashion aspirations in a world of overconsumption hurting our planet. And, according to UNEP, the fashion industry consumes 86 million Olympic-sized swimming pools of natural water resources... Every second, one garbage truck full of textiles is landfilled or incinerated!
The mural features two individuals representing the possibilities of sustainable fashion. It highlights alternatives to fast fashion, such as the boat shuttle for handmade loom weaving and the visible mending on the gentleman’s denim jacket. The gentleman is also smelling marigolds, a sustainable natural dye. The characters are juxtaposed against mounds of clothes, serving as a powerful reminder to support slow fashion and reduce contributions to landfills and fashion waste.
