How do we change how we look at waste?
At Quartermasters we are all makers and have a lot of scrap that cannot be used for our practices, but of course being makers we can not throw anything away.
We need the room in our studios, we need to change! Using embroidery hoops, acrylic off cuts, leather, yarns, papers and more join us to create your own scrap hoop.
All materials will be provided, as we paint, stick, stitch and draw our way through 90 minutes of spectacular design thinking and adapting as we change our scrap into works of art.
We’ll be storytelling about our own changes, listening to yours and creating a space where we can think about the changes we would like to see. Having a hoop in your hands is a great way to listen, who knows someone’s story of change may be the answer you have been looking for.
What to bring
- We will have lots of scrap materials but if you have some ephemera you would like to include please bring it along.
- We will be stitching but no previous experience is necessary
- Your change story, don’t worry it could be how you changed a tyre or went gluten free!
What you will leave with
- A small scrap hoop full of change inspiration
- Confidence to create change from even the smallest scrap
