Kingdom: Vegetabile.
//Description
Refruit
Ya Xiao (China), Lilach Pomerantz (Israel), Elena Sophia Di Giacinto (Italy).
Robust and flexible material with a different level of roughness on each side. Colorful patterns occur by using fruits with contrasting colors. The sustainable material feature comes thanks to the fact that it gives the fruit a second life after it has gone wrong or rotten. The mixture is spread on a silicone mat and patterns could be drawn with a squeeze bottle. After drying the material at sixty degrees Celsius for a period up to eight hours, a blended flexible material comes out.
