English: Garbage is a broad, all-encompassing term for almost everything for which we no longer have a use. Let’s rethink garbage and our relationship with it. Various initiatives, groups, and individuals will participate in this workshop to host a series of making activities that revisit our relationship with garbage and culturally perceived life cycles.
Some activities will focus on personal stories, dreams, urban landscapes, and movements that influence the multiple perspectives we have on garbage. Find out about global trends for the world’s waste problems and share your thoughts and experiences for a world map of “reverse garbage” ideas. Reflect on your own relationship with refuse and discover what can be done with things we declare as trash. Or create your own designs by upcycling what our society throws away.
Bring your garbage—let’s be creative!
The organizers of this afternoon include:
