Growth with Matthew Needham, Jawara Alleyne and Jennifer Droguett Espinosa
In this episode, Artist and Curator Matthew Needham, Fashion Designers Jawara Alleyne and Jennifer Droguett Espinosa discuss what a growth mindset means personally and professionally. Growth is a recurring topic of discussion in Trash Talk, referencing one of Trash Club’s pillars ‘Responsibility’.
Trash Club invites creatives from multidisciplinary practices from around the world to discuss what it means to be creative: the ups and downs and how our successes and failures shape who we are both personally and professionally.
About the Host:
Matthew Needham is a British-Czech artist, curator, Sustainability Lecturer at Central Saint Martins and co-founded Trash Club with Katy Mason during their residency at Sarabande. As an artist and curator, Needham’s practice focuses on bricolaging fly-tipped waste within his unique exhibition aesthetic. His ever-evolving investigations into the Anthropocene pose greater questions towards humanity's curation of the world around us and its dissemination within nature.
About the Guests:
Jawara Alleyne is an interdisciplinary artist, designer and educator whose work is rooted in Jamaican and Caymanian identity. The designer's style language is the result of examining topics of cultural relevance while pushing these through contextual and abstract references. Alleyne's collections are often the product of many references and research which he uses to create personal narratives.
Anciela is the fashion label founded by Colombian and Chilean designer, Jennifer Droguett Espinosa. Anciela is a homage to Jennifer’s cultural heritage as a culmination of the Latin folklore and rich experiences of a childhood combined with an outsider's perspective from leaving the homeland and living in London.
