"Re:collective," a conscious community initiative, invites participants to rethink the life of everyday textiles through its Repair & Mend workshop. This hands-on session explores the art of mending not merely as a practical skill but as a creative and sustainable practice. Instead of discarding worn or damaged clothing, participants will learn how to repair and transform them into expressive pieces. Techniques such as patching, stitching, and visible mending will be introduced, encouraging individuals to see garments as evolving canvases rather than disposable objects. Each repaired piece becomes a story - of care, creativity, and conscious living. The workshop also highlights the environmental impact of fast fashion and the importance of extending the lifespan of clothing. By combining sustainability with artistic intervention, the session invites participants to develop a more mindful relationship with the materials they use every day. The workshop will be facilitated by an artist whose details will be announced soon. Participants are encouraged to bring their own garments or textile items that need repair. Through collective learning and creativity, the event aims to celebrate sustainability, craftsmanship, and the joy of making something new from what already exists.
