Kinshasa

2025 - Kinshasa, DRC

A program on eco-conception and upcycling developed at Kobo Art - Fashion.

Alongside workshops, I trained a local trainer and contributed to the transmission of sustainable design practices.

Working with second-hand garments and found materials, participants developed projects through constraints, local sourcing and experimentation.

Random draws were used as a design tool -structuring choices and guiding participants through the process of eco-conception.

A 5$ challenge shifted the value of fashion - from materials to ideas.
