Card on Fire

Adorned with an excess of clothing, the subject is visualizing our society's relentless struggle with overconsumption, specifically in the fashion industry. According to the BFC, “there are enough clothes on the planet right now to dress the next six generations of the human race.” Instead, we continually resort to manufacturing an unending flow of new garments made in sweatshops, poisoning our waters and air. Despite the toll creating these clothes takes on our earth, 87% of these garments end up discarded in landfills, unworn and wasted, highlighting our toxic overconsumption habits.
