March 10, 2018 10:52 AM Subscribe
Stephanie Syjuco (previously) is one of the artists on display in MoMA's Being: New Photography of 2018. Her Cargo Cults series "... revisits historical ethnographic studio portraiture via fictional display: using mass-manufactured goods purchased from American shopping malls and restyled to highlight popular fantasies associated with 'ethnic' patterning and costume. Purchased on credit cards and returned for full refund after the photo shoots, the cheap garments hail from the distant lands of Forever21, H&M, American Apparel, Urban Outfitters, Target, The Gap, and more."

This is just encouraging the bad practice of buying goods from the internet, using them, and then returning them for a refund.
Those goods CAN NOT be resold as new and cost the online supply industry a fortune. It does mean that goods will soon cost more online or will be sold with "NO REFUNDS"
