Rethinking fashion through resourcefulness and storytelling
Explore the exhibition Quilts, Wool, Use with D and K in
this insightful curator talk. Discover how settler, wartime and Depression-era
quilts, crafted from recycled materials, embody resilience and untold stories
of working-class women. With RMIT practice-based researchers Ricarda Bigolin
and Chantal Kirby, the talk uncovers D and K’s innovative critique of fashion
through activism, design, and storytelling. Reimagine clothing’s cultural value
and the history of resourcefulness in this thought-provoking session.
