SERENITY OF DECAY
Project type:
Concept exploration
2022
Date:
This is a concept exploration for a potential collection. For this one, I was inspired by the amazing properties of fungi and how they can lessen or even reverse some of our environmental damage. From mycelium leather to the decomposition of human bodies to the clean-up of oil spills and curing diseases fungi are an incredible resource for humans. Yet the general population often looks down on fungi and mold finding them repulsive.
​
With this concept, I want to approach the problem from a design perspective and show the beautiful part of decay. Decomposition is an essential part of life without which rebirth would be impossible. So I am attempting to turn this side of the cycle to be more conventionally beautiful and hopefully more accepted.
