Cherry Shiu - Ceramic Re-Imagined

A 6-week material-led project responding to the context of the Anthropocene and the rethinking of construction and demolition waste as a resource. 'Ceramic Re-Imagined' considers the reuse of ceramic tiles harvested from post-use buildings, the reimagining of the material showcased in a timber framed pavilion.

9 'Patch Maps' illustrating the lifecycle of ceramic tiles as part of the material investigation process: mining clay, atomizing clay, tile production, firing in kiln, distributing, retailing, installing, maintaining and demolishing
