Denim fashion brand G-Star RAW and acclaimed artist and designer Maarten Baas teamed up for a thought-provoking exhibition during Milan Design Week. The 'More or Less' exhibition, explored one of the fundamental predicaments of our time: the tension and duality between the desire for more and the need for less through a series of design and art pieces made from denim waste. 'More or Less' showcased a fifteen-meter-long private jet and a triptych of cabinets in the shape of jeans, all crafted using recycled G-Star jeans.
The creation of a private jet, a symbol of luxury, out of recycled material likely provoked reactions, not only for its massive scale but also for the bold statement it made about the duality of sustainability issues.
The exhibition was housed in the 16th century Church of San PaoloConverso, Milan.
