audio excerpt from installation, 07'18"


可持的设计并不总是存在。当销售成为首要目的，视觉的诱惑和交易的快感都被纳入考虑范围，唯独没有对未来的期望。

交易可以周而复始。

但如果我们想要的不只是新鲜感，可以吗？“持续“这个概念能否在交易后帮助我们维持关系，感受时间的流逝和延续？

我们是否能像记忆过去一样感觉未来？

因为，一切都在周而复始着。

CHAN的货架上没有衣服，店里也没有过分热情的导购和任何时尚的痕迹，取而代之的是一系列录音。您能听到许多普通人关于他们的衣服的自白，而在那背后是与服装行业密不可分的日常生活。在我们的店里，所谓的服装设计不因潮流而存在。它或许存在于您的记忆和经历里，远比任何销售数字更加永恒。

Sustainable design doesn't always exist when we have to sell products as first priority, when the moment of attraction, and transaction, are all that counts. There is no future.

We can buy again and again.

But if we wanted something more, could a promise be made? Can sustainability enter the market in terms of lasting relationships, finding continuity and the passing of time?

Would we be able to connect to the future as much as we remember the past?

Things turn over again.

There is nothing for sale in the CHAN shop, no fashion images and no pushy sales attendants. The installation presents a series of recordings made from conversations with people about their clothing and the way that the manufacture of garments relates to the most intimate parts of everyday life. Fashion design and the clothing industry exist here outside of trend, perhaps in a space where memory and experience can outweigh a sales figure or another quick turnover.
