Description

This projects explores the power of vulnerability through hugs. Although hugs are a natural form of affection, the majority of people don't get enough hugs throughout a day. When we hug we transfer energy from one person to another, as felt when we hug for comfort. These wearable jackets explore if we could really feel that energy between two people.
