DERBY - Artist Sarah Schneiderman repurposes plastic trash and debris to create artwork that addresses social, political, and environmental issues.
Her work will be displayed in the Kellogg Environmental Center throughout the month of January.
There will be a reception with both an in-person and a virtual option from 2-4 p.m. Jan. 8 where Sarah will discuss her work and creative process. Registration information is below.
Please specify whether you will be attending the in-person or virtual reception.
Sarah’s work has been on exhibit around the country, from Seattle, Washington to Clarkston, Ga. and from Santa Monica, Calif. to Damariscotta, Maine.
She continues to use trash as her medium while exploring non-toxic and non-plastic adhesives. Her concern for the environment has expanded beyond art to lifestyle choices, including eating a vegan diet, using refillable containers, and repurposing household materials. Sarah calls Glastonbury and Bonaire, Dutch Caribbean, home.
Registration is required for the reception. Please register through the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection calendar of events webpage: https://www.depdata.ct.gov/calendar/viewev.asp?id=7584
