SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Jia Yi Gu & Kate Yeh Chiu
DESCRIPTION:Material Feast \nMaterial Feast is an interdisciplinary dialogue featuring designers and practitioners interrogating the contemporary role of materials in design. Framed as a “feast\,” a term that gestures toward sensory abundance\, the event invites us to consider materials as processes rather than products. Designers Brittanie Dabney\, Catie Newell\, Meredith Miller\, Melanie McClintock\, and Ana Morcillo Pallarés will each give a brief presentation of their practice\, using provisional objects and material samples to probe the boundaries between art\, science\, design\, and craft. Alongside the presentations\, a material library will bring together samples drawn from automotive plastic waste streams\, quagga mussels from lake systems\, and waste glass\, as well as perforated textiles\, hydrogels\, and brittle sponges made from foraged “kin” species.\n\n\nOrganized by Material Acts\nMaterial Feast is organized by Material Acts (Kate Yeh Chiu\, Jia Yi Gu and Hilary Huckins-Weidner)\, a research platform exploring materials as cultural technique through public events centering an experimental library. The project attends to the logistical\, economic\, and technological actions that transform matter into the material substrate for our lives. Initiated in 2021 as part of  Getty PST ART\, the project has taken the form of a major exhibition at Craft Contemporary\,  an editorial project with e-flux Architecture\, and a publication of ideas\, conversations\, and material inquiries. Working through exhibitions\, programming\, and editorial projects\, Material Acts brings together theoretical and practical engagements with materials\, addressing how design and architecture are entangled with social and ecological concerns. www.materialacts.org\n\nContributors \n\nBrittanie Dabney\nBrittanie Dabney is the founder and CEO of Ecosphere Organics\, a Detroit-based company that converts food waste from local restaurants and suppliers into reusable materials. An environmental scientist trained at Wayne State University\, she studied microplastic pollution\, and her company now develops compostable packaging and plant-based leather alternatives at Newlab. She is adjunct faculty at the College for Creative Studies and served on the 2025 Detroit Month of Design curatorial committee.\n\nCatie Newell\nCatie Newell is Professor of Architecture at the University of Michigan's Taubman College\, which she joined in 2009 as the Oberdick Fellow. She is the founding principal of Alibi Studio\, established in Detroit in 2010\, and her work explores materiality in relation to place through material systems\, light\, and darkness. She is a Lucas Fellow\, a Kresge Artist Fellow\, and a Fellow of the American Academy in Rome.\n\nMeredith Miller\nMeredith Miller is Associate Professor of Architecture and Director of the Master of Architecture program at Taubman College. She holds a BS from the University of Virginia and a Master of Architecture from Princeton. With Thom Moran\, she leads Post Rock\, a research initiative developing a composite building product from waste plastics\, and she is a founding member of the practice T+E+A+M.\n\nMelanie McClintock\nMelanie McClintock is Chair of Color & Materials Design at the College for Creative Studies\, with an MFA from CCS and a BFA in Fashion Design from Virginia Commonwealth University. A CMF designer\, multi-media artist\, curator\, and educator\, she explores material-driven concepts of time\, worthiness\, and a sense of place. She worked in the fashion industry for over two decades in the United States\, Qatar\, and Indonesia.\n\nAna Morcillo Pallarés\nAna Morcillo Pallarés is an architect\, designer\, and researcher and Associate Professor of Architecture at Taubman College\, teaching architectural design\, design research\, and spatial politics. She holds a PhD in architecture from Taubman and is developing research on the natural thermal properties of the biomatter of the quagga mussel as an opportunity for the fabrication of alternative by-products for the architectural residential industry.  She is principal of Rumor Studio\, formerly Morcillo Pallarés + Rule Arquitectos.
