 WORKSHOP @ NEWSTEAD



Installation WINDOWSPACE-BEEAC, May 2016


Inter-disciplinary French-born and Melbourne based artist Carolyn Cardinet will call Newstead home for the month of September as the first Arts Hub artist in residence.

Passionate about the alarming rate at which our environment is changing. Carolyn Cardinet creates new forms out of plastic waste. Cardinet’s sculptural pieces reflect and draw attention to the worldwide problem of mass production and senseless waste of plastic packaging.

Organic Plastic is an exhibition at the newly restored Newstead Arts Hub*. Sculptural white works from the series Organic Plastic will be displayed across this all white large gallery space (weekends only).

Working from the Arts Hub, Carolyn will facilitate an Art & Sustainability Recyclable Workshop Sunday 17th September 10-4pm – BYO plastics

Art, Agency, Action is a public event to connect social movement makers across areas of visual arts and social practice to exchange models, ideas and methodologies for taking agency and making change.

This is a participatory forum; the discussion will be led by short presentations from our key speakers around their own experience, creative projects and models of practice to facilitate dialogue and action with attendees: artists, producers and curators.
