Circular Catalysts - Romania Residency

‘In partnership with the Romanian Cultural Institute, the British Council in Romania is launching Circular Catalysts, a program aimed at generating new collaborations between Romanian and UK designers, artists and craftspeople and facilitating fertile conversations around sustainable production practices and processes.

Building on the idea that the pragmatic relationship between people and natural resources in rural Romania can be a fruitful foundation for local resilience and sustainability, five UK designers and artists have been invited to collaborate with organisations working in rural Romania to explore the intersections between rural and urban, and the role and migration of local materials and crafts in social, economic and environmental sustainability.’

Gareth will take part in the Circular Catalysts out in Romania as one of the UK participants in late February.
