Recycled Monster Art
Overview
The national organisation Clean Up Australia states that every year Australians consume about 3.5 million tonnes of plastic yet only about 13% of this plastic is recycled and every year 130,000 tons of plastic waste ends up in our marine environments.
Recycled Monster Art is inspired by the plastic that artist Darren Horsfield finds lying around the streets in Newcastle, Maitland and the Central Coast. The exhibition will feature an installation of over 100 individual plastic monsters created by Darren. During the exhibition period Darren will set up his studio in The Project space at Maitland Regional Art Gallery as artist in residence. In a series of art encounters, Darren will invite people to sit down and join him in his quest to reuse and recycle and make art with discarded plastic.
