According to the United Nations, the fashion industry is responsible for eight to ten percent of global emissions, more than the international aviation and shipping industries combined. If current growth continues, fast fashion emissions alone will increase five times by 2030. For designer Toby Crispy, concerns about the environmental and human cost of fast fashion hit very close to home.

Since 2008, sculptor Sui Jianguo has been using 3D scanning to capture details such as the shape and the texture of his palms and incorporate them into his works.

The new series includes his exploration of the traditional material of marble and how technology can interact with it.
