Material Discourse

Material discourse refers to the way language and communication shape our understanding of physical materials and objects in the world. It involves how we talk about, represent, and assign meaning to materials, whether in art, science, or daily life. This discourse can influence perceptions of value, sustainability, and utility, affecting how we interact with materials in society. By analyzing material discourse, we can uncover hidden assumptions and biases about how we relate to the physical world, enhancing our comprehension of cultural and environmental issues.
