Transcience, is a project unfolding in three parts: 1/ Cultivation - Rice As A Raw Material 2/ Craft - Rice As An Architectural Component 3/ Curation - Rice As A Generator of Atmospheres China wastes up to 18 million tonnes of food enough to feed 50 million people annually and rice is the most wasted food accounting for 24% of the total food waste. Trying to resolve this wastage, in June 2019 a new garbage system was put into place with a dedicated category to food waste, although most of China’s food waste isn’t recycled. It ends ups in landfills or burnt, detrimental to our environment due to the considerable amount of methane generated by waste incineration. It is for this reason that the project aims to take a circular economy approach by reusing the 18% of the total produced rice lost before reaching the consumer, 10 of which is lost during harvest and 8 of which is lost on on site storage. Rice is the enabler, tying cultivation, craft and curation together through transient activities and atmospheres achieves by the ever changing relationship to light.
