Description: As the climate crisis challenges the viability of conventional material systems, we highlight the transformative potential of biomaterials and their capacity to reshape our built environment through care, resilience, and innovation. This exhibition proposes a reorientation of design culture toward stewardship and co-creation, fostering collaboration across disciplines and institutions. By bridging the gap between research and application, artists in this exhibition catalyze new partnerships, advance open source experimentation, and celebrate the underrecognized leadership of women in this vital field.
