Longevity, Repair and Minimalism

Grace Isabella Wainwright

Summary

Final work

My name is Grace Wainwright, my practice embraces analogue and DIY techniques as a way to keep process at the heart of making. Working primarily across photography, illustration, graphic design, and mixed media, I use photography as a form of drawing, an observational tool to document overlooked perspectives and ground my work in reality. My creative approach is driven by a desire to explore unspoken, often uncomfortable topics that resonate within contemporary society. Through tactile methods and layered visuals, I aim to create work that not only speaks to the present moment but also honors the integrity of slow, intentional creation.

Titled Longevity, Repair and Minimalism, a phrase spoken during an interview central to this project, this creative zine embodies a curated exploration of anti-fashion. Rooted in themes of sustainability, capitalism, and personal identity, the zine critiques the growing commodification of fashion in today’s consumer-driven society. It particularly focuses on how young women navigate and resist these forces, reclaiming fashion as a space for expression rather than profit. Through a thoughtful blend of photography, analogue textures, and graphic design, the zine presents a visual and conceptual narrative that challenges conventional norms and embraces conscious creativity.
