Mend More

Sustainable Style is inspired by the Lifers exhibition at ROM created by artist Noelle Hamlyn.

In 2019, Noelle collected some life jackets that had washed up on a beach, and these life jackets inspired the idea behind Lifers.

Noelle found previously used clothing in thrift stores and other places, and tailored them to cover the life jackets. These “Lifers” were made to inspire thoughts and questions. 

Some of these questions include "what is the impact disposable clothing has on the environment" and "how can we convince people to learn to mend clothing?

Your challenge in this activity is to design a poster or infographic to convince people why they should "mend more."
