Conference: When life sciences and design cooperate for another coastline!
As part of Focus Sustainable Design, we are pleased to invite you to the following conference:
Nadia Ameziane and Guillian Graves
April 11, 2024, 6:00 p.m.
Jean Prouvé Auditorium
Nadia is a professor at the natural history museum of the Concarneau marine station, she deciphers marine worlds. She always has her head in the stars and sea urchins, that's normal, she studies echinoderms.
Guillian Graves is a designer fascinated by life, science and therefore by biomimicry. He explores living systems to inspire his projects
They were therefore made to cooperate, and at school, during a project, they imagined another coastline: more symbiotic at sea, more promising for the health of consumers, more exotic on our plates.
They therefore supervised Food design Lab students to think about and represent this new vision, with the basic question:
How could we act local and think global, for the benefit of the coastline?
During this conference, they will demonstrate their collaboration which illustrates an exemplary approach for the benefit of more sustainable development of local resources. It will also be a question of how to understand the living to better imagine living from it and with it.
They will also talk about this other coastline:
Aquaculture that is more respectful of the environment,
New local economic opportunities,
More exotic and desirable food experiences,
Fabulous health potential from a sustainable resource.
All this, thanks to the cooperation of life sciences and design to understand a marine species, sea cucumbers.
