The Department of Seaweed: A Deep Look at Material Culture and Communities of Practice.
Julia Lohmann investigates and critiques the ethical and material value systems underpinning our relationship with flora and fauna. In 2013, during her PhD, she established the Department of Seaweed, an interdisciplinary community of practice exploring the marine plant's potential as a design material. Julia talks about what inspired her PhD, the challenges she encountered, and the joy of digging deep into a subject.
Julia Lohmann is a Professor of Practice in Contemporary Design at Aalto University and is interviewed by Axel Vogelsang from the Lucerne School of Design, Film and Art.
