Family Sunday AAW 2024
We are happy to welcome you for a very special event during the Amsterdam Art Week. On occasion of the exhibition Un Cuerpo al que Volver / A Body to Come Back to at tegenboschvanvreden, Aimée Zito Lima together with her friend and colleague Elisa van Joolen will take you to the world of paper and fashion and the thoughts and memories that paper contains.
Imagine what a fashion magazine would look like in 400 years. In a world with no natural resources left, transformation and recycling are the only way forward.
Our Rags Magazine is a collaborative project by Aimée Zito Lema and Elisa van Joolen, that investigates transformative processes, proposing new forms of collective production aimed at the reuse of discarded clothing and textiles. The project and resulting magazine question consumer behaviour and its relationship to the world in which we live. Further expanding the potential of recycled material, Our Rags Magazine is a magazine where the pages not only show clothing, but actually are clothing.
For the Amsterdam Art Week Family Day Aimée and Elisa will shortly introduce the magazine followed by a workshop in which children and their parents/tutors are invited to engage in a drawing session.
Please note: in order to participate in the workshop it is required that adults and children both need to be wearing a jeans garment piece. This is the starting point for the activity that will take place.
Our Rags Magazine develops from collaboration and participation, therefore all results from each workshop become a part of the next issue of the magazine.
