The Gleaning Guide: Venturing in Redirective Fashion

ABSTRACT Gleaning is useful in seeing and utilizing the value in what has been cast aside. This is gleaning through the physical collection of what is left behind, alongside gleaning that is slow, incremental and epistemological. These actions reveal the lore embedded within an existing practice; a body of knowledge and wisdom connected to the traditions of persons and place. This practice-based research explores a propositional model where fashion design and gardening join to form a redirective practice, aiming towards a self-sustaining future. The gardener merges with their tended plants and the fashion designer fuses with their processes and materials of design and make. Awareness and appreciation is heightened; of the time, life and associated living that ushers in the stuff that design is made from, alongside the life and living that might project outwards after the juncture of design.
