Experimental Materiality

Made in Soil is an ongoing collaboration with Carole Collet (Living Systems Lab).

Expanding on Back to Dirt’s bio-inclusive myco-fabrication processMade in Soil explores textiles as a means to create a soft digestive mold hosted in soil to control and harvest mycelium-grown artifacts at ambient temperature. By integrating a range of fabric manipulation techniques, we have explored the potential of textiles as a skin interface to mediate and guide the morphology of mycelium.

A series of miniature chairs are shown at the exhibition Paysages du Design at FRAC in Orléans.
