Dorieke Schreurs and Jesse Adler, Future Materials Fellows at the Jan van Eyck in 2022/2023, have developed two different but complementary research strands on the future of pigments and colours.
Interviewed by Pleun van Dijk, curator of the Future Materials Bank, Dorieke and Jesse share their knowledge on the environmental impact of acrylic pigments, on the challenges of developing sustainable paint alternatives, and on the opportunities emerging from the fungal world.
