Symbiothesis is a speculative knitwear project where we imagine futures based on ecological, technological
and political predictions. Realistic assumptions mixed with fantastical realities that together create fictional thought-provoking utopias. We aim to introduce several speculative universes based on the landscapes they are imagined. Those future utopias will refer to themes of our current reality such as climate change and fast-evolving technology. Provoking challenges that have served as opportunities to adapt and re-think how we exist and interact with the world around us.

Knitted tech-garment in the shades of a lush green forest. Meant to be worn with the intention to communicate, exchange data and therefore build trust with the surrounding environment.
The knitwear has panels on top of the garment that contain and detect information. This data can be used to connect with and understand the World around oneself. By the touch of the ‘’tentacles’’, that outgrow the sleeves and act as sensory organs, one can exchange information with another living being and be truly entangled. Connecting through feelings, thoughts and ultimately energy we can then be one with the Source that is all around us in symbiosis with every living being.
