KINESIS
What I have come to believe is that being sustainable means creating a system in which we don’t just ‘take less,’ but one in which we actually give back. In the summer of 24, I stumbled across a study done in China. Two sensors were put on the knee cap, one on the top and bottom, where the skin contorted the most. They created wearable energy harvesters. This is Kinetic energy. Hence the name of this collection, Kinesis. All of these clothes are created to maximize theoretical kinetic energy harvesters.
ABOUT THE PIECES
This collection was created during my time as a student at Pratt Institue. The documented process (click below) represents a semester of work from my junior year. Descriptions of each pieces and how they fit into the ethos of the collection are located in the style catalogue. These peices are available on request for styling or events (click above).
