Past: memories

What is seen as trash by people who throw them on the ground, rather than putting it into a bin, a collectors mind sees treasure.

Purposeless objects regain a new purpose: Questions about the object create hidden stories of the person who has touched it last. In the past.

Reflect, collect. Collect, reflect.

This artwork is a collection of imagined memories to create new memories.


Present: act of doing

By simply picking up trash the environment gets cleared up.

Two present moments can happen: People who walk past trash feel a dirty surrounding // People who walk in surroundings of no sights of trash feel how it´s sopposed to be.

Clear space = clear mind.

No need to step over past purposeless objects of the unknown people. People are able to breathe. People sense nature. People can have a break from noticing world issues of polution. People love to notice.

A performance with art: Pure act of doing.


Future: relevance

Collected objects contain a new purpose: Awareness, insights, rethinking of own behaviours and most importantly: Art.

Collected objects in display.


Understanding of Sustainable Aesthetics

Subjectively speaking, the words have two different meanings, which can collide into one understanding.

  • Sustainability can be seen as taking eco-friendly ressources and giving it life and therefore great purposes. For example recycling/ upcycling. By using what is already there, we get to make materials or objects more long lasting, without creating new waste.
  • The aesthetics is what makes the sustainable into some kind of art form. Giving it new life, new meanings and perspectives. Since aesthetic is subjective, the creator has freedom in its expressions and can chose how the art work is presented. Making it a sustainable aesthetic.
