Marine Debris Bakelite Cup
Bakelite cup made from recycled plastic marine debris by Sydney Based artist Supercyclers.
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Supercyclers was founded by designer and curator Sarah King in order to address and elevate the issues of sustainability in design and to focus on those creating original sustainable solutions in design thinking while still staying strong on aesthetics. In 2010 Liane Rossler and Sarah launched the first supercyclers project with their re-imagining of the most discarded and ugliest of waste, the single use plastic bag, turning these into delicate coloured vessels. The aim, which has become an important principle of supercyclers, was to make the discarded desirable again.
Since then supercyclers has evolved as both a platform for the profile and exhibition of works by designers from all over the world, who are raising the bar of sustainable solutions in design. and as an international design brand, producing works by a growing number of world class designers.
"Supercyclers' Sarah King & Andrew Simpson have developed a new material created from 100% recycled plastic collected from Australian beaches after it has been dumped out of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch."
