RA fashion and Identity

On this friday, we went to the exhibition ' Fashion and Identity' at Royal Acedemy of Arts after Lecture.
It was really interesting exhibition. That was more conceptual art rather than fashion. I quite liked the concept of these works which have strong messages and well represented concepts. Some of those works in themselves were not great if I saw them from fashion eyes.

-Theory program task-
・What does the exhibition teach us about people's motivations for consuming fashion?
well, this is a bit diffucult question, because I could not find any related works from the exhibition, to be honest.

・Pick one piece and reflect on that it says about the production, consumption or marketing of fashion?
I'm going to choose the one which was made by Kimsooja. This video examines the globalisation of fashion using simple way, video recording, but well represents the concept and gives us strong impact of where what we wear are comming from. It lets us realize that how those high street fashion are made, and who are  making.
