ABOUT THE EVENT:

This open workshop spans out over several days, and explores do-it-with-others style the different ways in which it may be possible to make edible paper or flat sheets using waste. Starchy foods, fibrous vegetable or plant materials are ideal, and when blended or boiled, they can provide the basis for the sheets. The strength, texture and translucency depends on what materials we start with. First meeting introduced previous experience and invited local participants to join the experimental process during the following week.

​On-site there was basic kitchen items to blend, strain and dry materials with the tools and results of the process left as a part of the exhibition at apexart. The resulting formulas from the Edible Paper Experiments durational workshop can be found HERE.
