Independent Naarm/Melbourne-based designer and maker Eugenie Kawabata utilises her innovative design practice to showcase the transformative power of design. With an emphasis on materiality and sustainability, Kawabata crafts contemporary design objects from industrial waste, stitching, dyeing, painting and impregnating the materials with resin to transform them into objects of beauty and value. Her approach focuses on the tactile experiencer of crafting objects and emphasises the design process as a hands-on endeavour.
