'Fibre Market' by Christien Meindertsma was an installation that explored the role of technology to increase textiles recycling (on view in 2017 at the Design Museum in London.) Meindertsma worked with two textile companies to machine-sort 1,000 discarded woolen jumpers into rainbow-hued piles of fibres. ❤️💛💚💙💜However, while sorting through the jumpers, Meindertsma discovered that the 100% wool labels weren't that accurate. Many jumpers were blended fabrics with as little as 40% wool. We know so little about the sources and composition of the clothes we buy. This is why we need more #transparency in the fashion supply chain. ⠀
