Exhibition Art Sostenible Mediterrani at the Espai Sant Josep, Ciutadella de Menorca

Exhibition: Art Sostenible Mediterrani
August 28 – 8:00 pm / October 25 – 8:30 pm

Art Sostenible Mediterrani presents a selection of works by sixteen artists from Catalonia, the Balearic Islands and the Valencian Community, created from natural elements and reused materials. The exhibition includes various artistic techniques such as sculpture, textile art, painting and installation, and highlights the transformative power of art to raise collective awareness through creativity.

A collection of artworks made from recovered plastics and fabrics, fishing nets and ropes, microplastics and other waste. These creations give a second life to objects and materials that would otherwise be discarded, transforming them into pieces with renewed value and meaning. A body of work that expresses a clear commitment to environmental preservation, showcasing the beauty and potential of materials often considered waste.

In addition, there are pieces made with elements directly recovered from nature and the sea, such as wood, stones, roots, sea sponges or posidonia, which are turned into works of poetic beauty, advocating respect for nature and endowing them with new meaning.

The main goal of Art Sostenible Mediterrani is to give a voice to artists who are committed to change towards a more sustainable way of life and who establish a respectful dialogue with their environment. Through this exhibition, which combines creativity and commitment, the public is invited to reflect and to take part in building a more sustainable and conscious future.

This exhibition is an initiative promoted by the Fundació Baleària, in collaboration with the Drap-Art Festival —International Festival of Sustainable Art of Catalonia— and the Art amb B Association.
