In a resource-starved future where ‘natural’ deposits are depleted, how will we gather vital raw materials? Are there options other than recycling as we know it? Perhaps volcanic eruptions, industrial pollution, oil spills and toxic clouds won’t be viewed as ecological disasters but as economic opportunities.

My work is speculative but incorporates scientific advances in biotechnology, geo-engineering and robotics and represents a contribution to debates around economy, environmentalism and sustainability from a design point of view.
