Let The Redevouring Begin

My first project for this semester is my Kompost Altar, a Black Metal themed compost receptacle. I made this is an attempt to prove that composting isn't just for hippies and that it's central purpose of mass decomposition is concurrent with the Metal ideology.


















This functional receptacle for storing food scraps in a classroom before they are composted also serves as an altar to Decomposition and Decay.





















The jar for the scraps is sandblasted minus a Black Metal styled logo that reads 'XkompostX.'
In addition, the visible accumulation of the human consumption of natural resources resonates well with many Metal themes.







I also printed my first batch of Redevour patches using a natural mulch/soil and wheat paste composite on dumpstered raw canvas. These were offered as gifts to my class, who will be the primary worshipers at my Altar. The piece will be properly initiated in the near future.
