Conscious Consumption
Inspired by @oxigen.brasil
At the same time that we live in the era of consumerism, the world is asking for more sustainable choices and habits.
Artist Barbara Iweins' story is an example of how we can rethink our relationships with the objects around us.
The photographer decided to do something somewhat questionable: photograph all the items in her house. The result? She realized that she could live without 90% of them.
Over four years, she managed to register 12,795 objects while she was moving. The scale of the amount of unnecessary "stuff" was clearer than ever.
On the way to the Cortona on the Move photography festival - in Tuscany, Italy - the project captured everything from irreplaceable personal items to the most expendable items.
His work invites us to embrace a more minimalist lifestyle and reflect on habits that we wouldn't even pay attention to being on autopilot.
Around here, we continue with TH Sustainable, a project full of conscious bets and with TH Second Floor, which redefines pieces to continue telling stories.
