Kasia Gorniak and Laivi collaborate to create the installation ‘Goods and Services’, which reflects on fashion industry practice, putting equal weight on products and their processes. It was developed through a series of daily digital diary entries, remote conversations and garment-making sessions between Helsinki and Tallinn. The work plays with the moments between a fashion product’s construction, storage and display modes, deconstructing themes of production, labelling, packaging, sale and ultimately consumption. Familiar elements from the prior occupant of the space, clothing retailer ‘Fashion House’, are re-interpreted in a gallery context through the artists’ individual approaches, forming a new, shared design language and narrative.
