The project featured costumes created from everyday upcycled materials and designed by Ms Elpie A. Malicsi from the Domestic Worker Empowerment Project at the University of Hong Kong. As a Filipino domestic helper in Hong Kong, Elpie’s costumes speak to the need for a more inclusive dialogue about sustainability, one that addresses the links between sustainability and labour rights, decent work and domestic workers’ creative contributions to Hong Kong culture.
