Kombucha-cha

Kombucha-cha is a migrating laboratory for speculating cooperative design and production processes at the domestic scale through collaborative material research on homegrown bacterial cellulose sheets. It is a creative hub and a space of production, creating bacterial cellulose patchworks through an exploration of the fabrication methods of modular fabric, dyeing, and composite and compostable materials. The laboratory facilitates workshops as it moves and exhibits when at rest, travelling between the art and design communities of Seoul (South Korea), Kuching (Malaysia), and finally, Berlin (Germany). Kombucha-cha is a lightweight lab-on-wheels for the home. Together we can collect, process, and create our own bacterial cellulose from domestic waste.
