GROUNDED: Fashion’s Entanglements with Nature
Fashion in Film Festival presents GROUNDED, a major UK-wide season exploring the relationship between fashion and nature through the lens of cinema. Spanning the late 19th century to present day, the programme examines fashion’s role as simultaneously a barrier and a connecting tissue between humans and the natural world. GROUNDED presents diverse narratives addressing ecological and geopolitical concerns while exploring imaginative spaces of poetry, comedy, beauty, joy, horror, and transgression.
After a successful season in London in the spring, the festival is now headed to several venues across the South West of England and Scotland. The season offers an expanded understanding of fashion’s entanglements with nature in an era marked by escalating ecological crises. The programme is co-curated by Marketa Uhlirova and Dal Chodha, with guest curators. It is possible with the support of the BFI, awarding funds from the National Lottery. Fashion in Film Festival is based at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London.
