Passers-by were invited to take some of the pieces of recycled materials to create a collaborative artwork revealing the word ACT.
This word was chosen as a call to action for us all to act for the environment and in support of our sustainability goals. However, this piece was only temporary, at the end of the session, it was taken apart, leaving only memories, photographs and a timelapse behind!
The thinking behind this workshop is it offers a mindful, hands-on experience that encourages creativity, environmental awareness, and a chance to reflect on our relationship with the things we own and why we own so much stuff! By transforming these recycled objects into something meaningful, to then just let them go, participants explored the idea that not everything needs to be kept to be valued.

Thanks to The Art Hand for leading the workshop and SETU for having us as part of the Sustainability Strategy launch.
