Reaping the Spoil was my Goldsmiths Design Degree final project that recieved 98%. It’s a spatio-temporal investigation of an ex-colliery in Somerset, a landscape marked by centuries of coal mining. Though overgrown, these sites still carry autographic traces of extraction and exploitation embedded in the earth’s surface and spoil heaps. Through an investigatory film, a 3D graphic representation and a publication, the project reframes coal as a record of ecological and cultural displacement. By transforming colliery waste into new materials and wearables, Reaping the Spoil translates these hidden histories into tactile, visual storytelling.
