The project Out Of Bed was created during the first year of the pandemic and is a result of how I felt as a designer and human during this time. The clothing industry and especially online shopping had a boom in orders in the summer of 2020. I started to feel uncomfortable with the idea to buy new clothes, sewn by people far away with fabric that has a long journey behind and is often very harmful to our environment. So I went to second-hand shops and bought old bedsheets, duvet covers, table cloths, and towels. Each one is unique because of its history before it came to the shop. Every piece of these textiles I bought became a piece of clothing. This metaphor also means that we were in bed for so long and can finally start to slowly go out of bed again. But we learned a lot about ourselves during and because of the pandemic, so we also don’t want to loose the comfortable part of being at home. Wearing bedsheets and duvet covers as pants, dresses, and shirts helped me to process the new thing of going Out Of Bed again. The photoshoot was taken intentionally in my home and on the first holiday after corona, only with my closest people.
