Ummmmm so SHEIN stole my art this year ??? Wasn't sure if I was going to say anything at all, but all of I have to say is why! Why my art! Why does fast fashion even exist ?! All of this is so so wrong on so many levels.... right..right. Does the guy even know they're using his face ?!? 

Honestly another reason to view the art show tonight @alternativegallery , & support real artist & creators !!!!! 🍀✨ -

SHEIN uses ai to data scape the internet of fashion forward trends, "In which the clothing brand “produced, distributed, and sold exact copies of their creative work” — a move that is “part and parcel of Shein’s ‘design’ process and organizational DNA.” This so-called design process, the plaintiffs allege, is partially carried out via an elaborate algorithm that identifies fashion trends for the brand to then reverse-engineer and sell through their own store." - https://hyperallergic.com/833373/artists-accuse-fashion-brand-shein-of-using-ai-to-steal-their-designs/

Horrid working conditions: "In fast fashion, Shein, for example, has been criticized for sweatshop conditions, with reports indicating that some workers face grueling 75-h workweeks, receiving minimal pay and operating in unsafe environments (CNN, 2024 (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10551-024-05913-7#ref-CR13))." 

Fast Fashion Global Warming Tragedy: https://earth.org/fast-fashions-detrimental-effect-on-the-environment/

In this case my work is being used in both USA & India (banned now reopened), "Shein will use India as a "supply source for its global operations" and will help Reliance Retail in "building the network" and training Indian garment manufacturers, as it aims to promote export of textile and garments from India, an official from Reliance Retail said" - BBC

I'm honestly not sure if there's anything that could be done to stop fast fashion from stealing original art, and I'm all for sourcing inspiration, but regardless more of a reason to preserve physical media in this fast growing digital age of ai, stop supporting fast fashion rather small brands, artist, & creators instead, and especially credit where it's due‼️⭐️ by @cyberaf
