beGrounded
Growing sprout textiles
beGrounded is a project that explores the relationship between humans and other living organisms, as an emotional and artistic act through textiles. It proposes an exploration of a new habitable space in the form of a woven garment with growing sprouts, as a sensorial and interactive experience.
It’s not just about wearing it, but about growing it.
beGrounded includes a kit with everything necessary to germinate your woven piece and wear it as an idyllic representation of symbiosis with nature.
The objective is to feel nature and nourish our respect towards it in order to ideate on better solutions of coexistence.
Considering the Earthing theory, this biotechnologic garment has potential healing properties, leading to an upcoming fashion industry where users can deal with common health issues such as stress and anxiety through garments.
