Aporia
To supplement the thesis research, this work draws on interdisciplinary design to illustrate the interconnected issues underlying the socio-environmental crisis. It also explores the irony of corporate social responsibility initiatives that rely on apparel and memorabilia to market their commitment to social equity and environmental justice. The piece reflects this tension, existing as a deliberate contradiction of its own critique.
