What exactly is Deconstruction - Reconstruction?

Welcome to Deconstruction-Reconstruction! We are a group of art students hailing from various areas of study including fashion, fibers, and metals at Virginia Commonwealth University. We are researching recycling fibers as a response to the large amount of muslin scraps wasted each day in the fashion design department. Throughout our project, we will be collecting muslin scraps from the design studios in recycling bins, keeping track of how much is wasted, in hopes of creating a continuing fabric recycling program. During our research, we will be meeting with designers working with eco-friendly or recycled materials. We will also use the scraps in combination with found and recycled metals to create one of a kind garments and accessories in order to reuse the wasted scraps. These pieces will be featured in a final show in May 2008.

Show Extension!


If you haven't had a chance to check out the Deconstruction-Reconstruction show at the VCU Student Commons Gallery, you still have a chance! We have extended the show until June 24th, so you still have 2 weeks to view it.
