Arc Biennial of Art 2009

Click here to see the interview!

This workshop took place on Sunday October 11th. The artist invited parents and children to make a long snake like creature using thin plastic painters drop sheets. This is a very simple workshop that involves box fans and the simple construction method of hand tying the plastic together to extend the length of the sculpture. A very enjoyable and fun workshop for children and adults alike.

This workshop took place on Saturday the 10th of October and was a collaboration between Brisbane City Council and Reverse Garbage. Shih Chieh Huangt collected materials from Reverse Garbage and also invited participants to bring a cheap battery toy to disassemble.

The workshop was a joint collaboration between Brisbane City Council, Artworkers Alliance and Reverse Garbage.
