We're excited to announce our next major exhibition, Collective Care, opening on 24 September, at our home at East Bank on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Blending fashion, art, and social commentary, Collective Care invites visitors to rethink the relationship between fashion and community wellbeing. The exhibition and associated event programme are curated by LCF’s Cultural Programming team with contributions from both emerging and established voices in fashion, art, and social sustainability.
The exhibition showcases the work of researchers, designers and artists affiliated with LCF, who challenge us to see care in all its forms; from intimate gestures of love to our shared responsibility for the world around us. Presented across the ground floor galleries at LCF’s new campus, visitors will encounter the power of collaboration, empathy, and collective responsibility, discovering a vision of a more just and sustainable future for all.
Dr. Leila Nassereldein, Cultural Producer at LCF, UAL, said:
“Collective Care is a vital exploration of how care extends beyond the personal to touch the social, environmental, and political spheres. This exhibition brings together artists who are not only rethinking fashion and art but also reimagining how we care for each other and our planet. By challenging the boundaries of fashion, we aim to inspire a deeper, more holistic understanding of well-being that is grounded in empathy, compassion, and collective action”
