Tighe-Mearns-Smith
United Kingdom
It is crucial for art to maintain the element of deliverance. It is cardinal to use art as a tool for liberation. This liberation should not be at the demise of the earth. To tackle this is of the up most importance and in turn Tighe-Mearns-Smith employ unwanted goods and second hand materials as a basis for their fashion and traditional art work. Appropriating unwanted products and wasted materials enables art to work as a vessel for positive environmental impact. Art is dead, it has been killed it and it is our duty to redeem it. Welcome to the Era of Redemption.
The 12 heads of Cerberus is a sustainable fashion collection and concept proposed by Tighe-Mearns-Smith; it marks the transition from the age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius and with such pivotal moments in history reflects upon the idols of society. In true Aquarian form Tighe-Mearns-Smith creatively challenges the authority of those we hold in popular standing as the influencers and idols of our time. Tighe-Mearns-Smith look for a reconstruction of those celebratory names of the past and propose new influential leaders that resonate with the philosopher kings of Platos Kallipolis.
Our entire collection is made from 90%+ recycled, upcycled and ‘unsellable’ materials that we have stopped from going to landfill and repurposed them into our design to lead the way for a future of sustainable fashion.
