About this artwork
"General Engagement" same as "United Through Friction" s an art piece that explores tension and unity. The artwork skillfully pulls fabrics together, creating a striking visual representation of collaboration and shared effort. At its center, the fabrics appear to hold themselves, symbolizing a powerful alliance formed through collective determination. The tension in the composition embodies the hard work, dedication, and resilience required to fight…
against the environmental impact of fast fashion. The deliberate pull and struggle of the fabrics signify the challenges faced in the ongoing battle to reduce, reuse, and recycle textiles.
The white paint on top of the white fabric infuse the piece with a sense of harmony, reminding viewers that even amidst struggle, there can be a softness and grace to the process of working together
