Biomagination is the ability to imagine and understand the complexities of a world without waste, pollution and environment destruction. In a Biomaginative world, objects and buildings are living and have their own metabolisms. Their energy and resource systems work symbiotically with other entities. To be Biomaginative is to be part of a new generation of humans who simply have no concept of non-cyclic, waste producing systems. The Biomagination exhibition at the Sustainable Living Festival will take you through a series of images of a world without waste.
1st and 2nd year students studying a Bachelor of Industrial Design at RMIT University produced the images and undertook extensive research. Their lecturer, Stephen Mushin, is a freelance designer and artist who spends much of his time working at CERES Environment Park in Brunswick where many of the visioning sessions leading up to the production of the illustrations have been held.
