CRAFTING PLASTICS!

by product designer Vlasta Kubusova and fashion designer Verena Michels

is a cooperation-platform for young creatives from various disciplines, which aims to make the production process of the fashion and design industry more transparent. Bio-plastics from regrowing resources and natural fibres are explored und possible applications are tested. All of the products resulting from this project have the aim to provide information about how and by whom they are produced, from which ingredients and for what purpose. How can design react to current crises in the interaction between ecology and economy while opening up new maneuvers?

Installation: 16. October–4. January
