From car industry waste to fashion and art
M.U.S has invited local fashion creators and textile artists to work with waste airbags from the local car industry. This material is currently impossible for the industry to re-use and extremely hard to recycle thus most likely to end up in landfills.
The brief for the invited creatives is to create a free concept based on the material that sheds new light on its potential to be re-used in a different industry.
These examples are showcased in a group exhibition hosted at APLACE Malmö. APLACE was founded in 2007. It emerged from a magazine showcasing progressive Scandinavian fashion and has grown to be the home of more than 50, renowned fashion brands as well as up-and-coming smaller local, designers it is today.
