Smoke Screen is 3D printed out of a custom bio-filament made of California wildfire ash. Wildfire ash can be converted into a homemade biological-based filament for 3D printing using standard desktop FDM printers and speaks to the practicalities of using bio-digital materials for future building applications such as screens and partitions. Smoke Screen asks how we rebuild from the ashes using meaningful bio-digital materials, what artifacts can help remember what was lost, and how can materials that are a product of destruction become materials for construction.
