EARTH MATTERS

the story

she is talking loud and clear.

she is protesting violently with frontal attacks.

she is flooding her tears on the world and shaking off

buildings and people like flies. she is spitting her anger in the air.

she has had enough and is tired of accommodating further abuse.

torrential floods, severe draughts, unpredictable climates,

erupting volcanoes and multiple earthquakes are the result.

the earth is hurt and emptied.

she feels gang-raped and shackled.

most fossil fluids and matter are taken from her

and most stones and metals are gone.

most material is transformed into buildings

and most forests have become furniture.

most boulders are carved into bathrooms.

most gems are dancing, adorning human skin.

most crystals have become chandeliers.

most water is spoiled and most food is spilled.

most fields are wasted and most jungles untangled.

we have taken it all and it is still not enough;

we have taken it all and transformed it into waste

which we give back to the earth

as a poisonous present and

as an unsolvable mass of matter.

this century is bringing a moment of reflection and radical change,

making up for a century of abuse, greed and violence.

for the first time a post fossil society is emerging,

giving man much hope and faith in the future.

resetting attitude and mentality towards

more respect for the earth and each other.

therefore fashion will be mining mental matter;

taking inspiration from earth and trying to give back

its beauty and strength.

restoring her self-respect and reflecting on the huge gift

this planet was, and still will be for us humans.

a wealth of ideas will sprout from the earth,

analyzing all her entrails and components,

to be transformed into dimensional textiles and earthbound colours.

our entente with nature will be re-written and re-invented.

we will try to live together in a more harmonious way,

giving and taking, and caring for each other.

a more intimate and intuitive relationship will be the result, based on primitive emotions and ancient rituals and archaic systems,

re-inventing animism.

The Finders Keepers

2011-10-21T10:04:00.000+11:00

Featured Designer: Mady Dooijes

FK chats to Mady about her handmade organic fashion label, Mady Dooijes

Can you introduce us to your handmade label, Mady Dooijes?
Mady Dooijes offers hand-made garments, created with care in small editions. I hope to contribute to kind and thoughtful design that is dedicated to the idea that less is more. Many pieces span seasons with simple forms for timeless appeal. I only use natural, hemp, bamboo, organic cotton, silk, recycled + reclaimed materials. I use natural plant dyes, low impact dyes + water based inks. At the end of it all – I have pieces of work that reflect my passion and appreciation for design + the environment.

What is your background and how has it helped with the label?
I grew up in the Netherlands in a creative family and moved to Australia 10 years ago. I studied textile design at the Royal Academy of Arts in the Hague. After I finished my degree I packed my bags and moved to London. There I worked for years for a Textile Design Consultancy. When I moved to Australia with my Australian husband I painted a lot. I missed working with fabrics and after having two little ones I felt it was time to start for myself.

When did you get started and what were some of the challenges you had to overcome?
I started Mady Dooijes about 20 months ago. I feel passionate about what we eat, I try to buy organic when possible and so I am also passionate about what we wear. That’s why I wanted to work with natural materials. It’s a real challenge to find woven organic fabrics in Australia.

What do you love about working & dying fabrics?
I love creating things, I am always thinking about it… I like the way the fabric soaks up the dye- sometimes it turns out completely different than I had in mind, but that gives me new ideas for my next project.

What inspires your work, and keeps you motivated?
I get inspired by so many things: poetry, art, imperfections, travelling, flea markets and just by looking around at what’s happening around me. I love reading blogs, the internet is a great medium! I’ve found so manyinteresting people and artists. Feedback from other people keeps me motivated.

What can we expect to discover from your label at the upcoming Brisbane Markets?
A small collection of ruffled tops, skirts and dresses that I have hand-and dip dyed, some lovely silks and organic cotton fabrics in some delicious colours: tangerine, beetroot and turmeric.

you know quite well....

2011-10-13T17:01:00.000+11:00

you know quite well,

deep within you,

that there is only a single magic,

a single power,

a single salvation...and that is called loving.

well, then,

love your suffering.

do not resist it,

do not flee from it.

it is your aversion that hurts,

nothing else

i felt my lungs inflate with the onrush of scenery—air, mountains, trees, people. i thought, “this is what it is to be happy.

hussein chalayan’s coffee table skirt

this is part of chalayan’s ‘afterwords’ series which focuses on having to flee one’s home in time of war. he investigates themes of hiding, camouflaging valuable possessions and carrying them in flight, drawing ideas from architecture, science fiction and cultural identity.

dream...

i am a dreamer. i know so little of real life that i just can’t help re-living such moments as these in my dreams, for such moments are something i have very rarely experienced. i am going to dream about you the whole night, the whole week, the whole year.

a reminder...

dream...

reversed volumes

lose....

lose your dreams and you might lose your mind.

joy

nadia duvall

each day is a miracle...

she would consider each day a miracle - which indeed it is,

when you consider the number of unexpected things

that could happen in each second of our fragile existences.

i....

i am free and that is why i am lost.

ying gao

sometimes

sometimes, i feel the past and the future pressing so hard

on either side that there’s no room for the present at all.

fragility of time

i

i wanted movement and not a calm course of existence. i wanted excitement and danger and the chance to sacrifice myself for my love. i felt in myself a superabundance of energy which found no outlet in our quiet life.

apartment love

. ......

colour disturbs people.

i am confident in black, not in light. this dark side

of life is attractive to me forever and from the beginnings.

rue blanche

sol calero

you are...

if you fall asleep
on my chest, will my heartbeat

i will race to sleep
and i'll shake myself awake,

trust your heart
if the seas catch fire
(and live by love though the stars will walk backward)

you are like the snow only
purer fleeter, like the rain
only sweeter frailer you

imagination is not separate from reality;
it is the beginning of it.

the voice of beauty speaks softly;
it creeps only into the most fully awakened souls

every day i discover
more and more beautiful things.
