CAN HUMAN BEINGS TURN TOWARDS THEMSELVES AND DRAW ON THEIR OWN RESOURCES TO CREATE THEIR OWN ENERGY?

On the one hand, the sun can recharge our batteries (in a pictorial sense), but also in a purely utilitarian way with photovoltaic generated energy.

On the other hand we have piezo energy, generated by movement. We looked for ways to integrate extremely thin and flexible photovoltaic elements, as well as piezo elements into couture pieces. How to store the energy thus produced to recharge our essential smartphones, directly in clothing or through shoes?

In a nutshell, how can we actively involve Couture in solving our daily problems?

The most important message for us is that everyone on their own small scale can produce their own energy and reduce common electricity consumption.

The idea of this collection is that each of us becomes an energetic element that holds part of the solution to the current energy problem.
