Anthea Ibell - Remix Plastic

Anthea Ibell

CHRISTCHURCH

Anthea Ibell has worked in sustainability for 6 years and with her business, Remix Plastic, she creates wearable art from local plastic waste diverted from landfill. Inspired by native fauna and flora, her designs are embedded with the concepts of kaitiakitanga and circular economy. Each piece carries a sustainability story and makes them a tangible way to engage people in sustainability. 

Her accessories in this exhibition explore ideas of growth: literal, personal and societal. Anthea challenges us to explore larger environmental issues with these small pieces.
