Socialdress service (Socialdress servis)

In 2006 the artist and
sewing activist, Marija Mojca Pungerčar designed the project Socialdress based on thematic sewing workshops (www.socialdress.net). The term “social dress” refers to clothing which has an
integrative effect within the community. Over the six years of its duration,
the Socialdress project was introduced at a number of local venues, as well as in
Romania, Austria, Hungary and Croatia. At the City of Women Festival the
project will be presented in the context of the international collaborative
project Crisis, what Crisis? with two
new theme workshops. The first, called Blossoms
in Autumn
is aimed at intergenerational cooperation and will take place at
the Festival of the Third Age at
Cankarjev dom and at Elderly Day Activity Centre Šiška. The second, Socialdress
Service
, offers assistance in everyday situations when a favourite
piece of clothing “gets damaged”. At the workshop held in Škuc Gallery zippers
will be replaced, buttons sewn, pants shortened, skirts lengthened and vice
versa. It is anticipated that you will be able to order the Socialdress service clothes repair shop
at home. (Marija Mojca Pungerčar)
