Norwin Anne is a Filipinx multidisciplinary artist / designer, (re)maker, and eco-culture communicator. They studied Fashion Techniques & Design at George Brown College with a waste conscious approach and slow fashion mentality. Primarily working with secondhand materials, they started focusing on textile waste as a research study during school, which evolved into learning more about our waste culture to understand its environmental impacts and beyond. They want to continue developing their ideas and merge their knowledge of fashion with other topics by creating wearable art and installations to visually translate complex issues through culture jamming. They always prioritize using discarded materials and found objects in their work, they’re dedicated to this kind of art-making and enjoy the intuitive process of creating conceptual or functional things from what’s seen as useless — it initiates this challenge of exploring different alternatives and they try their best to avoid using new items as much as possible.
