The product line WHAT WAS AND WILL disappear around aluminum and its image as a sustainable material Although aluminum is considered endlessly recyclable, the recycling process often proves complex and subject to many obstacles The main challenges lie in the fixing, coating and mixing of different materials From these challenges, three objects develop: a lamp, mirror and clock Each object responds to the three challenges in its own way Their appearance reflects the tension between the material's rawness and its possible fine processing, as the interaction between controlled and unguided processes gives each object a unique appearance The three objects are all derived from the same alloy and are labeled „fur“ to make the material's origin visible and provide clues to its alloy, supporting the continued use of the material.
The product line WHAT WAS AND WHAT WILL BE explore and shows as a sustainable material. Although aluminum is considered endlessly reproducible, the recycling often provides products to be more complex and shared by universal challenges. These challenges are prior to the material and its potential from the material, where individual values and other values from the material and its potential for the result, where unselected and individual values.
