Profile
I am a highly motivated Product Design student, passionate about art, pop culture enthusiast, freelance illustrator and pretty interested in everything that drives my imagination. I define myself as an anthropocentric person from anthropocene, obsessed with the relation between human and non human, loving the design discipline not as much as I love the design environment: I’m always looking for new influences, inspiration and research material. I see myself in a constant learning process.

Material Narrative
Inspired by the 2020 European ban on disposable cutlery, I wanted to speculate about a future where plastic is a geological resource that communities can collect and utilize. The environment that most suffers from the presence of discarded plastic material is the sea and its shore: there plastic releases chemicals and pollutes much faster, due to environmental agents, killing creatures and ruining the economy. The industry is not interested in recycling a lot of polymers used in the disposable plastic segment, due to economical factors, which led me to think about it as a resource that could be useful from the locals/makers point of view, easy to collect and transform in something new.
