Listen "Aitor Throup and Andrew Groves"
Episode Synopsis
For our season finale, Amber is in conversation with multi-disciplinary artist and designer Aitor Throup, and Andrew Groves, Professor of Fashion Design at the University of Westminster and founder of the Westminster Menswear Archive. The discussion is a deep dive into the conceptual framework behind Aitor’s practice, considering the avant garde at the intersections of football and fashion, the paradoxes at the heart of terrace style, and how racial discrimination is confronted in his designs. It is linked to Aitor’s retrospective in Burnley for the British Textile Biennial this year, titled From the Moor. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
