The Alchemist

The Alchemist is a unique material experiment project. This collection combines fluffy residuum from a tumble dryer with glass cement to create a unique new material. The fluffy residuum enhances the toughness and plasticity of the glass cement, resulting in an intriguing new substance. This project also explores the addition of colour pigments to produce a range of vibrant materials.

Using this self-developed material, the collection created a series of brooches that integrate wax and cork. The wax at the centre allows light to pass through, adding a distinctive lighting effect to the pieces.
