Samuel Aguirre is an artist, designer, researcher and collaborator. He takes an experimental approach to the objects he makes and intentionally works with commercially available, bio-based materials to objectively show what is possible, at scale, here and now, to reduce our dependence on oil. Samuel's process involves deep material research into origin, composition, production, life cycle and end-of-life analysis. His work leverages a circular mindset to demonstrate that our hurdles are not a matter of resources, but of design ingenuity.
