My dad owned a denim factory in the early 1980s and it was everywhere when I was child. But the mass production of new denim is very wasteful, and it also hurts our planet. With this art show, we really want to encourage people to shop for recycled & vintage denim before buying something brand new, and we also want to inspire people to get creative with their clothing. Clothing is not disposable - clothing is art; and the people who create your clothing are artists.” - Claudia @sewloka “Definitely Denim” Participating Artists: - Anonymous - Ainara Calahorra, Muxu Creations @muxu.creations - Alejandro Morales Rivero @amrsdca - Amanda Kazemi @amandakazemiart - CJ Troxell @cjtroxellart - Dan Morales @danlgndary - Dientes Perdidos @dientesperdidos - Earl Dove @earldove - Evelyn Bernardi @evelynbernardi1 - Eye Gato @_eyegato_ - Frankyflowers @frankyflowers1 - Inocente @inocenteart - Izz A @_mad_mindzz_ - Jess Angelica @jessangelica - Joey Lenze @housewrecker - Jorge Gutierrez Garcia @jorgegutierrez226 - Jorge Mendoza @nestmurals - K.
