'Thai Materials' show at Material ConneXion, New York
Material ConneXion's commitment to public programming uses many channels. In addition to organising conferences and to their quarterly publication 'Matter', which explores materials and design from a number of angles, they also create exhibitions.
Material ConneXion's 'Thai Materials' exhibition, which showcases a range of highly innovative materials from Thailand
Material ConneXion's literally named 'Thai Materials' show, which premiered in Bangkok last year, presents numerous highly innovative materials from Thailand, including paper stocks made of banana-plant fibres, edible packaging derived from cassava starch, bio-active fabrics made of bacteria cultured with fruit juice, and eco-friendly inks that contain vegetable and soybean oil, all applied in a series of art objects, prototypes and case studies.
Just some of the materials on show at Material ConneXion's 'Thai Materials' exhibition
The show runs at Material ConneXion's New York City headquarters until 31 August. But if you can't make it Stateside, fear not. Architonic has created an inspiring photo gallery, showcasing some of the most interesting, innovative and unusual materials from the exhibition.
