Socialdress

Mojca Pungerčar: Socialdress?

The author Marija Mojca Pungercar uses the term “social dress” for clothing that has an integrative effect in terms of community. The Socialdress workshops spread knowledge about clothes making, at the same time reinforcing awareness about the consequences of globalization to the Slovenian textile industry, and about the gradual disappearance of craft skills. At Socialdress workshops we create functional items of clothing with a lot of soul that are easy to make as well. At the exhibition, the artefacts, created by the participants of the workshop at Red Dawns will be presented.

The Socialdress project was first introduced in 2006 at the Intermediate Spaces Festival in Ljubljana (the Kapelica Gallery) and in Graz (the ESC Gallery, Steiern Autumn). In 2007, the project was part of the Thread exhibition in Slovenj Gradec (the Koroška Gallery of Fine Arts) and the 27th Biennial of Graphic Arts in Ljubljana.
