Description

Regenerating Psoriasis Clothing: Co-creation, storytelling, knowledge sharing 銀屑病與衣裳的再生: 共創、故事分享、知識分享

Clothing and its consumption are a piece of cake for most people, but for people suffering from psoriasis, it requires knowledge.

Through a series of co-creation workshops with psoriasis patients, their difficulties in choosing, wearing and altering clothes are discussed and analysed. The project aims at integrating experience and knowledge from psoriasis patients, patient associations, dermatologists and the material experts, and sharing them through social media posts, booklet gift set and altered clothing. The participants are facilitated to observe their needs,familiarize with materials that are suitable for them, and create their own choices.

The project shows that, while illness inevitably deprives people of well-being, it is still possible to regenerate a different perspective by reexamining one's everyday life like clothing habit and preference.

選購衣裳對許多人來說是輕而易舉的事，但對於銀屑病患者來說就是一門學問。

經過和銀屑病病友作深入的共創工作坊，了解到銀屑病病友在選衣、穿衣、改衣當中，都碰到不少問題和限制，甚至常有撞板的時候。本計劃透過社交網站短片、小冊子禮物包、衣裳修改等，與銀屑病病友、皮膚科醫生和物料專家一同整合病患經驗和衣服上的知識，藉此讓病友們學習觀察自己的需要，更了解合適自己的衣裳，選自己所愛。

此計劃想表達一個信息：即使疾病無可避免地剝奪患者的幸福感，只要通過重新審視一個人的日常生活，如服裝選擇習慣和偏好，病人們仍然可以重新塑造嶄新的角度來面對疾病。
