Synopsis

With the support from Canberra Community Arts and Culture Club (CACC), The Textile Paper Lab project is an experimental space that opens up the definition of paper and the paper making process in response to the complex textile waste compositions that we discard. At this SAW x PAssionArts project, Canberra residents joined us in turning their waste into majestic soft sculptures that catch the light and wind in a public space in Canberra Park. Textile Paper Lab is led by artists, designers and sustainability educators. It is a project by the Renew Earth Sweat Shop that creates micro-community spaces for people to gather to learn, to sew and upcycle together.
