Thanks so much for all your contributions to our Land Art / Trash Art Open Call! Here are the results: a chain of 16 individual pieces of work, loosely based on the theme of 'circle.'

Participants were asked to take inspiration from what could be found outdoors in the vicinity of their homes during this summer, and to make something spontaneous in the space of a few hours or a day.

It has been a delight to see what was found and what has been created outdoors this summer. We hope you enjoyed finding inspiration in your surroundings 🌿😊

Thanks for your Land and Trash Art submissions, it looks like you had fun out there!
We can't wait to share the work so we will compile them and post shortly!

Thanks to those of you who have made your trashy / arty / earthy creations and sent them our way! There have been some delights that we are eager to share.. but not quite yet!

We decided to extend the project until Sunday the 12th July, to give those of you who'd still like to make something, another opportunity to do so.

This is because we know it's been a busy few weeks adapting to changing Covid-related restrictions, midsummer celebrations, socially-distanced bbqs, selecting your favourite mask to wear...etc.

But we're still looking for spontaneous submissions that are made in just one day or less, on the theme of Circles, and using the land and trash you find around you. So if you feel inspired, you still have some time to take part!

In the meantime, here's a fragment of inspiring Californian land art from our Kompost Kolleeg Sophia Bazalgette !

And here's the collection of shorts from our MASKS-themed jam! Featuring work from Helen Woolston, Piret Lindau, John F. Quirk, Keawalee Warutkomain and Helen Unt!

In the space of 24 hours, in the isolated space of our houses, we had the challenge to create things based on the theme: MASKS! This could take the form of a film,…

So what happened to those potato stamps we used for the natural ink printing workshop? ....They became a delicious soup of course! More secrets to be revealed in the short film Ploy Zmetad...which explores in depth the mysterious life cycle of a potato stamp... ** COMING SOON! ** 🥔🥔🥔

Some of the contributions made during our interactive-upcycled-animation-natural-ink-potato-stamp-wrapping-paper-workshop.

Lots of fun, being a bit messy and a bit silly, thinking of natural techniques and re-using rather than buying, at the EKA Christmas Market 2019!

Tomorrow we are going to be at the EKA Christmas Market with an interactive kiosk recycling our old animation papers! Come and make your own recycled Christmas paper with potato stamps and our homemade edible inks!
