Overview
Sustain you. Sustain me. Sustain it for always. That’s the way it should be. Sustainability may be the buzzword du jour, but my, what an excellent thing to be buzzing about.
Sustain Me: Contemporary Design is a group exhibition of Australian and international designers who are engaging with ideas of sustainability in their work. This involves designing objects from would-be landfill and the use of earth-friendly materials such as clay and natural fibres over less renewable alternatives.
Karmic brownie points aside, these objects are also very easy on the eye and will have you wondering if you might be able to sneak one out the back door. Sustainability is a necessity nowadays. How wonderful to see it cha-cha with style and function.
Sustain Me: Contemporary Design opens at Ivan Dougherty Gallery on Thursday 30 July at 6pm and is part of Sydney Design 09: 13th International Design Festival, running until 22 August.
