Alexi Freeman
Alexi Freeman is an interdisciplinary artist, fashion & textile designer who lives, works and researches in Naarm (Melbourne), juxtaposing speculative ideas with artisanal, biological and technological methodologies.
Freeman has released over twenty critically acclaimed collections of artefacts that caress the parameters of wearable design materials. Freeman also lectures in Regenerative Design and is undertaking a Research by Practice Masters in RMIT’s School of Design, interrogating the potential of microorganisms as eco-analogues for the textile fabrication industry.
Freeman’s future provocations include photosynthesising biodegradable active wear, and evening wear that propose to decentralise renewable energy harvesting via infrared radiation.
