Fashion Is Outrageous (FIO) loves that design and visual aesthetics speak directly to the fashion design community and wider society. By situating art within research and education, FIO creates visual documentation that engages, expands and captures knowledge. These experimental creative methods invite alternative approaches to achieving policy outcomes, and can be shared as educational artworks and tools to prompt learning and discussion from Participatory Action Research

The artworks achieve live graphic recording, which involves visual illustration and capturing verbatim text describing ideas and emerging themes around SB 707 in the designer community.
