| Background |
使い捨て型の社会から、あらゆる資源を循環させる社会へ。
人それぞれが循環に取り組んでいく姿は、やり方も規模も多様です。
さまざまな活動がハーモニーとなって持続可能な社会をつくっていきます。
It is evident human’s linear consumption has finally resulted in reaching the tipping point for our planet - the climate crisis is increasing pace putting both environment and human existence at risk. There is no later, but only a must to “act now” for a transition to a circular system, preventing our Earth we call home from further destruction. This “Circularity in Motion” installation, was purposefully made of what was considered to be “waste”, fabric scraps, into an artwork to showcase the ability to close the loop and keep resources in eternal usage through its circular shape. The layered circles symbolises the circularity of resources designed at varying levels in process, sectors and society interlinked by the complex unseen thread suspending the installation.
