Felt multifunctional object 2013

Felt is an appropriate material for creating objects that last through time, that can be re-modelled easily and used for other purposes. The same object can become a vase, a coin tray, a lamp, a fruit bowl...
Bioworks intend to re-discover an essential element of our culture, taking a step back in the attempt to break the negative trend of consumerism and waste. The most appropriate material for this was found to be felt, due both to its ancient origins and to the purity of the textile itself, and to the fact that its production does not involve any polluting industrial processes. I experimented with textures and languages, with different modes of utilisation, which will inevitably be transferred to the user, who will control the processes of self-construction, re-utilisation and re-cycling.
