‚Crystal Armer‘ and ‘Flower Crystal bird‘ represent two characters from MADbyMAD ‘Pink Matrix’ 24 collection. In ‘Pink Matrix’ 24, I aim for fully sustainable luxury pieces, made to be degradable into separate materials and recycled easily.
The inspiration comes from my relationship of me and my grandmother, who was recycling at her home. She had many practices. One of them was saving starch water after cooking a potatoes and watering her plants with it. This is a base for bioplastic material. She’s also remaking old clothes into new garments for me to become different character, when we used to play games for teleport and galaxy travelling.
I aim to recreate ‘‘Pink Matrix’’ universe, which played significant role in my childhood, within all characters from galaxies: ‘‘Crystal galaxy’’, ‘‘Flower crystal galaxy’’, ’’Strawberry galaxy’’ and ‘‘Lemon crystal galaxy’’. Each galaxy represnts specific place, things which used to bring me into all these fantasies, such as my grandmother crystal cupboard, her kitchen cup-board with sweets and her whole apartment full of various approx 150 flowers and fruit plants. Each outfit represents one character from these galaxies.
I have been exploring bioplastic material such as starch / fruit and jelly based bioplastic, which I have developed into edible fabric ‘’Bioplastic crystal leather’’ – leather like consistency leather substitute, which is easily cooked home, from ingredients such as water and jelly. Cook it! Wear it! Eat it! Vitalise plants with it!
