Between Salt & Water - Seagrass and ocean water textiles
Designed by Anubha Sood, 'Between Salt & Water' won the Sustainable Textiles Category in the Global Design Graduate Show in collaboration with Gucci 2020.
'Between Salt & Water' focuses on the study of seagrasses and ocean water collected from three oceans and studied through the processes of dyeing, weaving, and material softening.

The primary focus of this collection of experiments is to observe how the material configures itself to reveal new kinds of information - more concretely, the relationship between our production processes and the natural world.

When imagining a habitable future, it is crucial to think about the current systems of production, consumption, and how they exacerbate the larger climate crisis.
"My work is centred around the sustainable ecology of making that addresses current systems of production and their entanglement with the natural world. I’m interested in liberating material of its practical purpose, exploring its sensorial aspects."
- Anubha Sood

"Intensive research and experimentation are integral to my making but I rely on unexpected happenings, discoveries, accidents to arrive at something that transcends materiality."
"My experimental practice is devoted to the study of bio-materials, from bacteria and human hair to my latest passion, seagrasses. My formative years were spent in India, where I witnessed the environmental and social toll exacted by the textile industry in my native home."
"My work critiques these current production systems while visualising a more equitable, sustainable path forward. I see weaving, the intuitive act of making as a personal healing process and a catalyst to physically engage with my environment." - Anubha Sood
