Workstation New Media

Camila Mila is a multidisciplinary designer who began her academic journey at the University of Lisbon, where she studied Fashion Design. After completing her studies, she moved to London, where she spent several years working in the fashion industry, while always seeking an artistic form of expression to complement her aesthetic. In a symbiosis of 3D elements, mixed media, and sound, her visual compositions aim primarily to evoke emotion in the viewer, often incorporating humour. She currently resides in Berlin, where she works as a freelancer.

SO MANY CLOTHES BUT NOTHING TO WEAR? is a 3D project that transcends mere aesthetic to become a visual meditation on digital fashion and its role in promoting sustainability. It symbolises the fleeting nature of beauty and fashion in harmony with nature – however, we are later confronted with an underwater graveyard of discarded garments, a striking vision of the accelerated cycle of obsolescence and waste. This visceral contrast evokes reflection on sustainability and collective responsibility. By employing digital fashion and immersive environments, it questions current norms and fosters global awareness. Through this aesthetic and ethical duality, the work promotes an intercultural dialogue on the intersection of innovation, sustainability, and environmental responsibility offering an artistic and visionary response to the contemporary climate crisis.
