RESURGENCE OF LUBUGO
RESURGENCE OF LUBUGO IS AN EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW EVENT
DEDICATED TO CELEBRATING THE WORK OF UGANDAN DESIGNER KATENDE GODFREY AND THE UK PREMIERE OF A NEW DOCUMENTARY FILM ABOUT HIS PRACTICE, PRODUCED AND DIRECTED BY HANNAH ALLCHURCH IN 2025 IN COLLABORATION WITH IGC.
THE FILM FOLLOWS KATENDE’S JOURNEY OF RECLAIMING
LUBUGO (A TRADITIONAL UGANDAN CLOTH MADE FROM TREE
BARK) AND FUSING IT WITH UPCYCLED MATERIALS, HIP-HOP
CULTURE, AND RADICAL APPROACHES TO SUSTAINABLE DESIGN.
MORE THAN A PORTRAIT OF THIS GROUNDBREAKING DESIGNER,
THE FILM SCREENING IS A CALL TO REIMAGINE AND SHAPE THE
FUTURE OF FASHION THROUGH ECOLOGICAL CARE AND COMMUNITY.
FOR THIS PREMIERE EVENT, WE ARE CURATING AN EXCITING
MULTIDISCIPLINARY EVENING OF FILM, FASHION, PERFORMANCE, AND MUSIC.
