Zero Waste Series

Inspired by RISD Foundation year assignments, I created my own take on the assignment (creating plants).
I wanted to experiment by utilizing materials found in my friend's potential trash (things that they were going to throw out; as well as yard waste)

Even for binding, I used rice, cornstarch, and/or tapioca starch to bind the materials.
So everything I've used can be reused without the use of recycling facility.
4.5 x 5 in; Orange Reef
4 x 5 in; Blossoms
4.75 in x 6 in; Pine Shell
Tangerine Peel -> Marmalade
Onion Root/Skin -> Vegetable Stock
Leftover Barley -> Re-Roast then boil tea
Rice Noodle/Pasta -> Eat
Grapefruit Peel -> Reused for All Purpose Cleaner, with water, vinegar, and grapefruit peel
Lemon Peel -> Another form of marmalade and used some to make lemon tart
Flour with bicarbonate -> Ramen Noodles
Pine Needles -> used to steam with rice cakes to create aroma (used in Korean Traditional Cooking)
