New Materials Foster a Culture of Disposability. On the Possibilities of Market-Based Material Reuse with the Brussels-Based Collective RotorDC
Brussels-based studio RotorDC has built its practice around a premise of reusing materials that would be destroyed in other projects. In a discussion with Tom Schoojans and Victoria van Kan we dive deep into the problems of working with such materials, where is the demand and what cultural and legislative barriers they face. Further on we discuss the recent cooperation with filmmakers Illa Bêka and Louise Lemoine.
