In 2022, I created a Life Cycle Assessment of ceramics for a class in Sustainable Design at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD). The project was to look at all facets of a certain material and find points in the supply chain and processing that could be improved upon from an environmental and health standpoint.
I tasked myself with creating this vivid and abstract book to represent the different elements that went into producing a ceramic art piece: Clay, water, heat, and glaze. I wanted to create a playful narrative while still deeply exploring the impacts of this incredibly versatile material.
