GRADUATES BASEL 2020: Tatjana Haupt #ODDAdigital

With an objective of foreseeing the future, Lörach, Germany-born Fashion Design student Tatjana Haupt is inspired by the idea of archiving as a method of study of documentation of oneself and the history behind objects and garments as way of re-appropriating those and escaping the contemporary information-polluted and everything-is-disposable lifestyle. Through upcycling, Haupt seeks granting new life to archived or disposed garments by highlighting its unique history while at the same time allowing the wearer to imprint it’s own unique perspective into the collection.
