I work as a local fabricator in the metal manufacturing industry and always try to get the most out of the materials that I need to do the job with minimal waste, so when a job came in to make round concrete foundation cages one of the things that I was left with was about a thousand of these U shaped tails that were off cuts . They were too good to just be scraped and this is how they found a second life. Touring to Yass Valley

My passion is working with natural and constructed materials, keeping them out of the waste cycle.

I use sustainable materials as much as possible, sourcing waste or re-used or leftover items with potential, making both useful and whimsical objects.

Transforms recycled cardboard into a sculptural corset with a modest skirt, reflecting the urgent issue of textile waste. By repurposing discarded materials into art, this piece highlights the potential for creativity in confronting waste. Just as a corset reshapes the body, this artwork demonstrates how we can reshape waste into something valuable. It challenges our throwaway culture, inspiring a shift towards sustainability and innovative thinking in fashion. Touring to Yass Valley

Bicycle wheels, T Shirt, handmade cord, chintzy fabrics, champagne wires, phone cable and folder material. 650 x 650mm

Thomise Mudford, Stylish Consequences

Echidna; recycled tiles, Polystyrene, broken alcohol bottle. Rusty paint drum, shower screen glass, old brushes, scrap textiles fabrics. 380h x 380 w x 540 d          

As an artist I specialise in mixed medium 3d sculptures made from recycled materials. My artwork prompts viewers to consider fashion’s impact on animals and the environment. Textile production depletes resources, notably water, while contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and environmental pollution. Fast fashion and overconsumption are wreaking irreversible damage. Look at the artwork, close your eyes and imagine a world with sustainable practices and mindful consumption. Together we can drive change for a more beautiful world. Touring to Yass Valley

Sharon Hall, Please don’t bring me flowers, anymore         

Nylon lace. Vintage Knitting Needles. Glass vase. 35cm tall. 20cm wide           

As I rescue and re-purpose vintage sewing materials and notions, I’ve noticed how relatively small are the ‘craft stashes’ of women in generations past. They are chiefly collections of tools for making and mending garments, with very little wasted. Contrast this with the masses of scratchy, unattractive nylon lace that appeared (and quickly disappeared) in the 1980s!

The hands and his heart are made from the very (already recycled) linen that has been used to help heal sick and injured wombats in our care from Wollondilly MacArthur region.

David Smith, plumBob             

plumbing hardware and timber. 25w*25d*40h (cm)          

Started as a clean-up of horded recyclables in my workshop, but when I looked at the dismantled taps and water pumps, I saw the potential for a little creature to emerge. plumBob soon took form as a slightly whimsical/silly manikin (or scary, depending on the viewing angle). All his elements, except the eyeballs, are recycled. Touring to Yass Valley

POA   

Annie Duke, Control Fish

Vinyl and found objects. 500x 300x 50        

The Control Fish (or Ctrl for short) emerged before me, from the various plastic waste products on offer. Our oceans and waterways are copping the brunt of our global addiction to single use plastic. The diverse and beautiful creatures that inhabit these waters and are being poisoned, choked and strangled by the irresponsibly discarded islands of floating plastic rubbish that we allow to drift across the vast aquatic environments of our precious planet. It is long past time we took control of our excessive consumption habits, our careless disposal and our disturbing waste of these precious resources. Exercise some Control, please!   Touring to Yass Valley

Textile Waste

The world is in a textile waste crisis and we need creative thinking to help solve the problem 

The average Aussie purchases 27kg of new clothing and textiles every year, and discards 23kg into landfill. This contributes to the 6,000kg of clothing and textile waste being discarded into landfill every 10 minutes, putting Australia as the second largest consumer of textiles per person in the world, after the US.

We can fix this! We’ve gathered some scary facts and inspiring solutions…

Waste to Art All year

Get Creative with your unwanted textiles 

Don’t send it to landfill, your waste textiles can be so many things instead of going to landfill…

Art materials. Make creative works of art and craft from your unwanted clothes and textiles. A quick search online will show you lots of creative ideas to choose from.

Enter your work in the 2024 Wollondilly Waste to Art Prize. Entries open 15 May 2024.

Not ready to cut it up?

Pass It On. Donate  your unwnated textiles to one of the many charities that operate Op Shops and social programs for people in need. There is sure to be one operating near you. And while the big charities are great, don’t forget your local community run Opportunity Shops.

OpShop.org is a free listing for stores selling goods for community and charitable organisations. The best site we know to find op shops, it’s better than a treasure map.

Fun fact – Rose the Exec Director at STA hasn’t bought a new garment in many years. All her clothes are second hand or made from recycled materials by creative people. True she is never seen in the latest fashions but her look is creative and eco-friendly.

  • Upparel – your unwanted items get a second life through reuse and recycling to help close the loop on textile waste. Check it out

Big Picture Thinking

Be a savvy consumer with the following tips.

  • Reduce – Buy less clothes using the money you save to buy items that will last longer. Fast fashion is cheap and very, very nasty. Buy clothes that you like and feel good in rather than the fashion of the day.
  • Reuse – In Australia, most clothes are worn an average of just seven times. If you buy clothes you really like you will want to wear them more.
  • Recycle – Buy second hand and donate you unwanted textiles (in good condition) for someone else to use.
  • Repair – Mend your clothes and wear them for longer. There are heaps of sewing groups and learn to sew options to show ou how. Ask around or serch online.
