Event date: 19th - 28th October 2009
For this initial project, about 1.1 kg recycled papers/newspapers were used to produce new paper cards.
The used papers were first soaked and blended. Then the blended paste was pressed thinly onto round trays before going for sun-drying process. The trays were dried few days under sun depending on weather. After completely dried, the dried paper paste was then removed slowly from each tray....and walla! we got new paper cards to be used as writing materials.
