Unravelling Convenience explores the environmental and social costs of mass consumer culture by transforming Amazon packaging through embroidery and sewing. By working with single-use mailers, I aim to question the contradiction between convenience, sustainability, and labour. The act of stitching — traditionally slow and domestic — is reimagined here as a method of resistance, slowing down the pace of consumption and reframing disposable objects as sites of care and critique. 

I made this work in honour of my mum Fiona Bartlett who passed away in 2020 who in my view was and still is via her legacy the biggest advocate for both animal and environmental welfare that I know.
