I propose Future City Earth Systems, an artist-led project that explores earth as a phenomenon positioned in the neoenvironment. For that the project employs ceramics in an expanded field as an investigative tool with the ability to bridge nature, culture, and technology.

Climate crisis and expansion of urban environments leads to exploitation of natural resources and fast transformations of the world. The project takes the situation into account and aims to approach it with care and find suitable design methods sensitive enough for these affected sites.

This project as a way to explore a new futuristic paradigm for thinking about and with urban materiality of future urban environments. Furthermore I speculate about what an experimental future ceramic studio might be. As an artist, a craftsperson and a human I am intrigued by in-depth knowledge about the complexity of earth-systems. The project explores them via case studies positioned in a real city or a megacity.


Example of an indoor clay battery. Here I explore how such a battery could look as well as how it could be used to create sustainable electronics.
