VALUES SWEATSHIRT
[concept description]
OUR VALUES ARE FORMED THROUGH UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL EXPERIENCES, GIVING OUR HUMANITY COMPLEXITY AND DIVERSITY. THE CHANGE AND DEVELOPMENT OF VALUES SIGNIFY OUR GROWTH THROUGHOUT LIFE AND THUS, ARE INSEPARABLE FROM OUR IDENTITIES. BUT BECAUSE OF THE DIVERSE NATURE OF VALUES, THEY CAN BE A DIVISIVE FORCE BETWEEN PEOPLE, PREVENTING CONNECTION. WE SHOULD AIM TO RECOGNIZE SUCH DIFFERENCES BETWEEN EACH OTHER, BUT INSTEAD OF LETTING THEM DIVIDE US, WE SHOULD TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE UNIQUE EXPERIENCES THAT LED TO SUCH DIFFERENCES.
THIS PIECE IS PART OF “THIS IS WHO WE ARE”, THE FIRST COLLECTION FROM TRNSPRNCY THAT HIGHLIGHTS THE FOUR FOUNDATIONAL PILLARS THAT ULTIMATELY SHAPE WHO WE ARE AND WHO WE WILL BE.
