Project description
How can design perspectives and methodologies help understand and deal with the ecological issue of invasive alien plant species?
As part of my master's thesis, I am exploring creative biomass revaluation opportunities in a regional context as a way to help slow down spread, raise awareness of the topic, reflect on changing ecosystems, and question our role within them.
During the summary, a workshop/demonstration will be held, where visitors can experience and learn about textile dyeing with two alien plant species considered invasive in Thuringia. This is meant to arouse interest in the controversial matter and serve as an impulse to discuss bigger topics like biodiversity loss, environmental responsibility, migration, and globalisation.
