#gratitude @magamnsw MATERIALS WITH A SECOND LIFE ♻️✨ #northerbeachesenvironmentalart&designprize

What possibilities can be found in the materials we discard?

Matthew Curtis’ ‘Revitrification Pair’ transforms waste television screens and architectural glass into new building components. Suzon Fuks’ ‘Helix Nebula’ reimagines obsolete SIM cards as sculptural wearables, while Sacha Jacobsen’s ‘After Grove’ creates a moving canopy from plastic lids diverted from landfill.

Discover how design can transform waste in the Environmental Art & Design Prize at MAG&M, from 7 August to 20 September 2026.

In November this year I will be participating in the @craftdesigncanberrafestival in Canberra. My project #revitrification address the important issue of redirecting architectural waste glass from landfill and reforming components for our built environment. #behindthescenes #details #homestudio #gratitude @craft_design_canberra @anbgalive @artsact_ @sean.booth.maker @harryschwarzrock +++ by @mattomakes
