Through manipulation of the materials and creation of sculptural forms, the knowledge in textile design was used to develop alternative methods for working with materials of animal origin. The project touches the issue of consumption by accentuating the fascinating features of animal materials and proposes a way of taking care of materials looked upon as disposals. It questions how we value what resources we have in our surroundings and how we use them. Or more important – how we are not using them.
