The environmental and textile themes of Issue 003 focus on: fire,
burnt orange, and energy. 
 
Inside the issue: 
In this issue, you’ll see artists direct perspectives and ideas surrounding the brief below - through their work. There’s a collection of sustainable textiles, as well as multimedia art which speaks to these themes as well. 
 
Brief:
Wildfires represent a healthy energy, a chance for renewal, an opportunity for growth. Unfortunately, the impacts of human-induced climate change have made wildfires quite unnatural, leading to increases in both the number of fires  and the breadth and intensity by which they burn. Fast fashion and unsustainable textile practices are directly related to the earth’s warming climate. It's time for these industries to take responsibility for their role in the devastation that has been wrought on the lives of those who call these susceptible regions home, as well as the land itself.
 
In response to these environmental injustices, Clearline Zine asked for submissions that utilize the color theme of burnt orange for our third publication. This color theme unites reflections on forest fires, the relationship between the fashion industry and climate change, and, broadly, meditations on the color of burnt orange — which feelings and energies it might be associated with.
 
Artists reflected on their energy in 2020 and where they wanted to direct it in 2021. Even the ashes of forest fires create nutrients that return to the soil. Creators in Issue 003 focused on how they would move forward while taking in these themes.
 

Written + Designed + Printed in Detroit, Michigan


Clearline Zine is a Detroit based environmental and sustainable textile zine. Clearline shares voices directly from the artists we highlight in order to hear different perspectives surrounding issues our environment faces. Each issue focuses on micro themes, but always in relation to the overarching themes of textiles and sustainability. We donate a portion of profits from each issue to an organization whose mission correlates with the current theme. We believe there is a clear line between what is right and wrong in the textile industry. There is a clear line line between how we should treat and should not treat our environment. There is a clear line between saying something, and watching these issues continue.
