"The fight for zero waste artwork has begun," said Beijing-based British artist Matt Hope. "My previous work creating the Breathing Bike from e-waste, 10+ years living in Beijing, and deep thinking while making ink drawings has brought me to this critical point. We must be conscious as artists and citizens of earth to know and understand how much energy we use, often in excess as waste. We must be willing to become more efficient in not only the production of artwork, but also in how we live our lives on planet Earth." The Open Call for E-Waste is specifically looking for electronic waste and other materials including: packing foam, electric wire, foam board, electronics, electric connectors, insulation, insulation foil, pharmaceutical and other plastic casings, cables, small appliances, and rechargeable batteries. The e-waste may be brought to the newly launched Oui.Gallery Hong Kong from 11 am - 7 pm, Tuesday - Sunday.
