Speculative
Bio-based printing ink embedded with living microalgae to create photosynthetic, carbon capturing footwear.
Living materials used with footwear will need care, through watering.
‘Active Objects’ (objects which incorporate living materials) are fed through collaboration with food systems.
The project offers critique on how we use living organisms for our needs, without considering their animacy.
