The Birth of the Pearl

2020 - 2022

The Birth of the Pearl is a collection of 10 upcycled pieces made from the reuse of fabric banners found by chance among clothing donations.
The original prints on the banner - images of pearls, polka dots, pearly colors and information about how pearls are created - convey the idea of a jewel thrown away in the trash: the wealth that no one noticed, because it was still in its raw form.
The pieces were exhibited in a collective fashion show on Trans Visibility Day (2020), at Transviada Art Week (2022) and at Trans Fashion Day (2024), all held in the city of Campinas, SP.
