Flooded by Fashion

Installation

Project Completed in 2021

The volume of water consumed by the global fashion industry is 79 billion cubic meters, equivalent to 32 million Olympic-size swimming pools.  

This installation calls out the fashion and textile industry’s insatiate and ecologically catastrophic use of water. 

By using pre-used, discarded fabric Boyle has given it a second life through this installation, raising awareness of the water waste in the fashion and textile industry.
