Flétta has experimented with textile offcuts from the production of 66°North clothing, the material has been melted, sewn, and wrapped together in different ways in search of the right context for the textiles.
Valdís Steinarsdóttir uses a two-dimensional mold to shape the clothing with natural liquid material.
