De Mobiele Materialenbank, publication, 2025
Why do we have such a hard time letting go of certain materials? What belongs in a materials bank, and what doesn't? What is the weight of a story? Who needs materials, and who has too much? Is the power of a story strong enough to sustain a materials bank? Can we get to know each other better through our materials? What kind of materials bank would you want to continue working in?
‘De Mobiele Materialenbank’ is a research on the narrative surrounding waste materials that are often forgotten in peoples houses. By highlighting this narrative Stef Lemmens wants to change our perspective towards these materials and connect people with each other along the way.
De Mobiele Materialenbank was published as a part of the book ‘The School Herdefinieert De Materialenbank’.
