ArtScience Museum

This event is part of the Waves of Change Festival 2023 held at ArtScience Museum on the 5th to 27th of August 2023.Wardrobes Make Waves: Fashion and Ocean Plastics TriviaWardrobes Make Waves is a fact-finding, thought-provoking ‘call to action’ session, led by a fun trivia game and conversations that bring participants closer—not only to one another, but also to an understanding of how clothes produced and worn on land affect the ocean’s biodiversity, carbon sinks and pollution levels.   During the session, participants will go through the fun of competition, slide into knowledge about how the brain and ocean are affected by clothes-shopping, and end gathering their initial surprise, thoughts, and learnings into a guided reflective and introspective space. Participants leave understanding that clothes, the ocean, and their internal worlds are so closely intertwined, and become better able to choose clothing that minimises damage to the ocean.  About the host: Leading the talk will be 2022 National Geographic Explorer Thammika Songkaeo, the co-founder of Two Glasses LLP, a Singapore-based company that tackles environmental problems in multidisciplinary ways. She has a grant from National Geographic Society to produce ‘Changing Room’, a dance film that investigates how body criticism and human insecurities are related to fashion overconsumption and climate change. It premieres at The Projector this September. Location: ArtScience Cinema, Level 4For the full festival line-up, click <a href="http://www.wavesofchangefestival.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HERE</a>!Please note that there are limited seats to all talks.
