Award-winning designer Khajornsak Nakpan introduces a groundbreaking approach to fashion design, utilizing soil-based bio-fibres to create sustainable garments for the future in Thailand.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Khajornsak Nakpan's Bio Melanin project is a pioneering initiative that harnesses the potential of soil as a renewable resource for textile production, addressing the challenges of climate change and sustainability. The study, which commenced in August 2018 and concluded in April 2021 in Thailand, has garnered international recognition, being exhibited in prestigious museums, galleries, and academic platforms across various countries.
The project's core innovation lies in the synthesis of bio-fibres and melanin from soil bacteria, resulting in a material that not only mimics human skin tones but also offers a biodegradable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional textiles. This groundbreaking approach aligns with Thailand's national development strategy, emphasizing scientific innovation and creative business growth.
With dimensions of approximately 60 x 120 x 100 cm for garments and 72 x 140 x 23 cm for ornaments, the Bio Melanin collection showcases the potential of soil-based textile substitutes in the realm of fashion, offering a glimpse into the future of sustainable and eco-conscious design.
