"Fascinating Flour" is a project that embodies the concept of "thinking through making." It encourages learning through hands-on experimentation with flour, where the key process is steaming to create a unique piece. The project explores how factors like steam temperature, duration, flour types, quantities, and additives interact to produce intriguing outcomes, allowing for discovery through creative trial and error.
The final piece, “Crystal Mirage”, showcases the natural beauty of blue pea flowers and freeze-dried strawberries in a clear, glass-like structure. The vibrant, irregular fragments and transparent base create a striking, gem-like effect.
