Light My Fire

For the UAL Professorial Platform 'Light My Fire', Helen Storey MBE RDI Professor of Fashion and Science, London College of Fashion, was interviewed by fashion activist Caryn Franklin MBE using psychology concepts. This conversation covered fashion, science, art and climate change.

'Light My Fire' was a multi-sensory experience held in the Rootstein Hopkins Space featuring grass paths, birdsong, cocktails and smelling ribbons, and was timed by the progress of a flame within Storey's dress of glass and flame.

As the University continues to maintain and develop its profile as a global leader in arts research, a series of Professorial Platform lectures was launched in 2008.
The Platforms are an opportunity for University colleagues and associates, as well as invited members of the public, to learn more about the research undertaken in the University. The Platforms enable Professors to highlight their field of interest and the University, in turn, to recognise and commemorate their successes to date.
