Liene - I love your slippers! The weaved material looks amazing. I admire how you took a very silly funny idea very seriously to make it real. It is even more funny with your placid face. I am impressed how experimental you have been during this project, trying out lots of various techniques of weaving, molding, etc., with determination. I guess the one thing I was less comfortable with is that it looks like you've been melting plastic, which could be an environmental concern. I wonder how this material feels, and I think the challenge if you wanted to take this project further would be to achieve softness and comfort which are expected for pyjamas.
I think you really have succeeded in finding a tone in the video, that fits you and your project well and kept this during all your videos! That’s great! I’m happy you kept your humor even during lockdown! And you mixed your humor with seriousness when you were using your textile skills to transform the crisp packages into a fabric-like material! Although you have always pushed it a bit further, I would now be interested what would come next! Because it seems like there is nothing else that could be done as you have made a pyjama and a pair of slippers - but now it would be great if you could somehow transform the material into an even more fabric-like material or maybe shift away from the pyjama and it becomes a trend/campaign where you encourage people to make sth out of their waste or sth like Christo when he enveloped the Reichstag in Berlin - but in your case with crisp packages - so many options ;)
Liene!!!that first sole was soo cool! A pity that it was too rigid. Anyway I really enjoyed the designer you've shown us during this journey. I had so much fun watching your videos and all the experiments you've made. I think you overcame so many difficulties when working with the crips bags, and ultimately came up with a pretty comfort and refine pyjama set. I honestly love the slippers!!! I was wondering what was your ultimate goal in this project: was it to encourage people to make more of their clothes at home? To show many ways you can reuse different waste? Or maybe a mix of both? Well done:))
Ehy I think you achieve a really interesting result... I honestly would like to wear those slippers... I also think that your final point is really interesting and it might be implemented in the future, who knows... Just one question, how many crisps do you ate?
I really enjoy the simplicity and clarity of your project - making pyjamas out of crisp packages. Through the course of these weeks you’ve clearly been on an experimental journey, trying a variety of techniques and processes to up-cycle your used crisp packages. Although the result isn’t necessarily unexpected in terms of how it looks, you have really committed to crafting this material into something that looks finalised and well-made. However, I think that the way in which you communicated your final daytime pyjamas could have been much more playful and engaging. As this isn’t a real proposal for how we should be up cycling our packaging waste (I don’t think the material itself is suitable for home wear and the melting of plastic is a bit problematic), you could have been much more experimental and comical in the way you visualised it being used at home. Although I really enjoy the idea of you walking around in your house wearing crispyamas (sorry) I’m missing a greater consideration of how the content is filmed, how you tell the story and more ambition in the way you display/film your final work.
Really well done, liene. A very nice and engaging reflection. The beginning was so funny with the carrots.
