Fast fashion produces 150 billion items of clothing per year. Textile workers earn on average $5 for 12 hours of work, mainly in Asia. Our clothes travel on average 20,000 km before arriving in our closets. We only carry 30% of what we buy. Every day, 3.3 million tonnes of greenhouse gases are emitted by the textile sector. Today, more than 65% of our clothing is made from synthetic fibers (i.e. from petrochemicals). Every year, we throw away 9kg of clothes per person.
Faced with the injunctions of fashion, capitalism, overconsumption, faced with the exploitation of human beings (often women, children), let us no longer allow ourselves to be invaded and take back control.
For this painting, I used an atlas page focused on Southeast Asia, the largest clothing-producing region (China and Bangladesh).

Born in 1988 in Oise, Annabelle has been painting canvases and writing books since childhood. In the family, no one practices an artistic, musical or sporting activity. What matters in this environment is above all university studies to have, at the end, a "real" job.
So Annabelle obeys and climbs the ladder: degree in art history and archeology in Amiens, Master in Sciences of Antiquity in Lille, then, finally, the last stage: a doctorate in Greek archeology which she obtains in 2017. However, during her research, she did not stop painting and even exhibiting whenever she had the opportunity. At the end of her thesis defence, she informed her jury: no, she would not embark on research but would attempt an artistic career.
The difficult issue of identity, duality and inner conflict is at the heart of Annabelle's thinking. Whether it is the injunction made to women (on their physique, their activities or their social status) or the personal evolution in our society (where the norm is still the only model and where the difference is stifled), the question is then the same: how to make our deep convictions coincide with the world around us? How can we assert our identity without feeling judged? Can we remain ourselves, flourish, knowing that we are constantly influenced by society, the eyes of others, social networks, money or even success?
Eco-feminist and anti-conformist, Annabelle draws from her personal history these two-speed anxieties, torn between her deep convictions and the current norm. She then analyzes her own life course and delivers an almost autobiographical gallery on the canvas: if none of the characters really resemble her, they nevertheless evoke all her concerns, her conflicts, the people she has met as well as different moments of her life. life.
