Cover & Connect is a large installation at the not-for-profit Thread Together. Made under the direction of Luke Power by a team of sewing volunteers, the same volunteers that help clothe thousands of people doing it tough through the charity work of Thread Together.
The patch work art is an installation is 10 x 6 meters and spans across the roof of the Sydney warehouse facility. It is a demonstration of the power of team work, and symbolises the strengths of the charity: to cover people in beautiful clothes with great dignity, to rescue and deliver brand new end-of line fashion stock that would otherwise go to landfill.
