Image Research - Sustainability

The expression sustainable art has been promoted recently as an art term that can be distinguished from environmental art that is in harmony with the key principles of sustainability, which include ecology, social justice, non-violence and grassroots democracy.

Sustainable art may also be understood as art that is produced with consideration for the wider impact of the work and its reception in relationship to its environments (social, economic, biophysical, historical and cultural). (wikipedia)

Image Research - Racism

I chose these images to use as inspiration for my flag design. A common link between all these images is that they show that we are all human, not matter what race. I want to also use that in my flag design as I think it is a strong message of truth.

Image Research - Political Textile Pieces

I've chosen these textiles pieces to inspire my own textile piece as they show different techniques such as, sewing with various materials, embroidery, dress making and print making. I would like to use either embroidery or sewing with various materials in my artwork as I really like the look.
