About the practice
May Green Collective brings a range of Canary Islands creative businesses together under one roof. Its collections include fashion and accessories, art and decoration, natural cosmetics and food products, presenting sustainability as part of a broader approach to everyday living rather than only a clothing category. Textile reuse is a specific strand of its work. The collective invites people to donate unwanted clothing, which designers and artisans transform through customisation and creative construction. The resulting pieces are then offered for sale in its Santa Cruz space, linking local material collection with local making and retail. It also provides a platform for independent upcycling brands. One example is Kâla Upcycling, founded by maker Amalia, which repurposes discarded nautical equipment, advertising banners and other durable materials into bags and accessories. These products belong to a represented brand; their manufacture should not be attributed to May Green Collective itself. Community activities extend this approach beyond shopping. The website promotes creative workshops and material-collection sessions involving families, accepting textiles, paper, cardboard, bottle caps and other reusable items. Local animal-welfare organisation SOS Felina also describes May Green Collective as supporting animal shelters through upcycling and recycling, although the precise contribution mechanism is not specified.
