A simple, disruptive idea is taking root
Over two weeks the wheatgrass seeds sprout and grow down onto templates carved from beeswax to create textile that is woven entirely by Nature. Root textile has a unique aesthetic that is both beautiful and intriguing. It’s biodegradable, pollution-free, water-efficient and estimated carbon negative. At the core of the innovation is a simple, disruptive idea that root can be grown into functional materials to replace synthetic textiles and petrochemical products.

Entirely compostable, the material serves as both reality and metaphor, highlighting the intricate dynamics unfolding in the depths below.
