Kosuke Tsumura

A fashion designer giving a lecture on waste and fashion. One of the many lectures I had the priviledge of attending at Toyko Wondersite including one by the famous Chinese artist Song Dong.























Me and my group brainstorming ideas about the project we had to complete in 10 days, It was on 'Waste'. We even got a trip to Dream Island, islands made entirely out of rubbish.





Toyko's homeless live in the parks in shelter that they they have constructed themselves out of rubbish. They often have jobs but cant afford the expensive housing prices and have no help from the government who simple try and move them on.





















































The impact of the lights in the city was something that really struck me about the city and something that has gone on to inspire my present artwork.
