    Artivist Carolyn Cardinet | Exploring Sustainable Art

    We spoke to the gorgeous Carolyn Cardinet, a visual artist who works with waste. She makes stunning installations, wearables, necklaces, earrings and sculpture made of single waste plastics she sources. She has dedicated her whole artistic career to sustainability and sustainable art, and we at Sustainaroo Travels are blown away by her creativity and unbelievable things she can do with the single use plastics she finds on the road. This journey has led her to become an artivist, an accidental activist using art to create awareness. The impact of art on society is such that it creates a visual so that we can understand ideas easier. 🌐 ⁠⁠Full Show Notes⁠⁠ with detailed resources and further recommendations: https://sustainarootravels.com.au/art... 👥 Follow and check out her latest work: https://www.carolyncardinet.com/ Instagram:   / carolyncardinet_art   Interview Index: 00:00- Chapter 1: Preview 00:48- Chapter 2: Intro 01:00- Chapter 3: Introducing Carolyn Cardinet 08:41- Chapter 4: Carolyn's Sustainability Journey 11:14- Chapter 5: Working with Bailey Arts 13:14- Chapter 7: Showing Waste She Has Collected & Uses 16:28- Chapter 8: The Plastic Problem 26:21- Chapter 9: Movie Recommendations 28:18- Chapter 10: The Problem with Fast Fashion | Finding Solutions 30:34- Chapter 11: War on Plastic & the History 31:57- Chapter 12: Recycling Plastic & Recycling in Australia 34:46- Chapter 13: What Can We Do? 39:38- Chapter 14: Finding Sustainable Art Wherever you are 41:26- Chapter 15: Buying Artwork Made from Plastic 42:14- Chapter 16: Outro
