The focus of the project is in the fabrication process of the 3D textiles, as much as the resulting pieces. Very much like alchemy, the design process starts with a basic material. The designer explores ways to transform it, to give it more value, to “raise its status”. And the result is often unexpected, like turning lead into gold.
The project was first exhibited as a part of “The Alchemists” exhibition at La Triennale di Milano, and then at Singapore Art Museum.
