What if we could grow materials? In this experimental two-part workshop, you'll use tessellations and digital fabrication to create a self-woven tile made from grass roots.
Learn about tessellations and digital design techniques to create a 3D-printed tiling pattern. Then, assemble your tile and plant your grass seeds above it. Watch the roots grow to follow your pattern over time!
Participants must be available for both sessions. No prior experience necessary.
This is an 18+ workshop series.
$80/person
Workshop Dates:
