Reed concept

Reed is a sustainable art project aiming to integrate dying as a natural scenery into our daily lives.

In a world increasingly aware of environmental issues, my challenge is to make sustainability an art form. Reed is more than just a project; it's a multifaceted initiative decentralizing responsibilities and reducing individual burdens. By transforming organic leftovers into valuable resources, Reed contributes to waste reduction and environmental sustainability. Through natural fermentation processes, Reed harmonizes with the environment, minimizing human intervention.

Reed thrives on community engagement, inviting people to interact with its transformative journey, fostering a sense of ownership and collective responsibility. The collaborative effort behind Reed's creation involves engineers, designers, and artists shaping a masterpiece that blends technology with art. Reed will serve as the emotional pulse of the community, leaving an indelible mark as interactions with its light, sound, and dye forge connections between people and nature.

Reed's 1st prototype is a parametrically designed organic unit. When set with organic leftovers and water, it is hung on a tree, allowing natural fermentation to progress. As fermentation progresses, the light and sound change, enhancing the scenery for enjoyment. When fermentation matures, the dye permeates Reed's Seed Wing, flying like a maple seed. People enjoy interaction with Reed by dyeing fabrics or using it as paint, fostering a connection between individuals and the project.
