About this Event
The Biomaterials Club: Orange Biotextile Gathering is a space where we democratise knowledge about biomaterials, share experiences, and build a community around sustainable making. This session focuses on a deep dive into one specific material: an orange biotextile.
We invite you to experience this material through your senses, to touch it, smell it, and see how its texture and color behave. This is a space to talk about its lifecycle, how it was made, and how we can use "Kitchen Chemistry" to create sustainable alternatives to traditional fabrics.
What to Bring:
- Anything you want to share: Feel free to bring your own experiments, research, or any creative project you are currently working on.
- Curiosity: We encourage everyone to ask questions and explore the material without judgment.
- A Notebook: To capture any sensory observations or "light bulb" moments.
Our Home: Islington Mill Art Academy (IMAA) where the club is hosted, is a free, peer-led art school and creative learning community. IMAA is a safe heaven for creatives, queers, and misfits who believe in the power of taking things into our own hands.
