The Sustainable Design and Material Lab DiMa exhibition
DiMa is a research centre at the Estonian Academy of Arts, which focuses on circular design in the field of textiles and fashion and the development of new sustainable materials. The textile industry has become the second biggest industrial polluter after the oil industry. This has generated an urgent need to deal with textile waste- collect, sort, upcycle and recycle. Our aim with this exhibition is to provide the visitors with practical examples of the textile waste circularity by upcycling, industrial upcycling, mechanical recycling and regenerative textile design.
The exhibition is co-funded by Estonian Environmental Investment Centre and European Regional Development Fund
