EXTRACT Edible Painting & Printing Products

  • Effie Koukia
EXTRACT art products were born from an exploration into graffiti, specifically from research into health & safety and sustainability issues relating to graffiti equipment such as spray paint. The challenge was to replace petroleum based art products with safe and eco-friendly products derived from natural and sustainable sources.

The thinking behind EXTRACT is to replace dangerous components in paints with biodegradable ingredients that users can literately consume. In this way the products become totally safe for the user in case of contact with the skin, ingestion or inhalation.

EXTRACT’s revolutionary formula has been applied to three different art products, demonstrating several potential applications. All the products are permanent and odourless, and no mask or other type of protection is required during their use. The products are safe for use by all, including children and those with respiration problems. EXTRACT art products are environmentally friendly and, as they are not considered a hazardous chemical waste but as household waste, improve the chemical footprint of art products.

Using EXTRACT art products, people can paint and print safely and responsibly.
