This year, we’re excited to share insights from our past events since 2020. Each month, we’ll add new articles to our website, reflecting on key learnings and experiences.

Explore our latest posts here: https://tardigrade.world/research-articles

Our first article, “How to Select the Right Location for Public Space Creative Activities,” dives into the strategic considerations behind venue selection—navigating power dynamics, aligning goals, and creating meaningful audience experiences. It also looks at how traditional art settings can inform new, more flexible environments. Written with the help of AI, this piece is part of our evolving series, and we’d love to hear your thoughts.

Check it out and share your feedback!

We at Tardigrade World are thrilled to share insights from our 'Object Reborn Series' workshop! 🌱

Designed and run by our team— Hoi Ping Tsang, Hikaru Good, and Mongoose Chen—we invited community members to explore and create unique pieces of art. Participants transformed waste into striking artworks under our guidance, embodying sustainability and creativity.

We shared our developments with over 800 people online and engaged with over 90 participants at Mt Albert Library.

Special thanks to Waiuku Zero Waste for providing materials, Exchange for their support with tools, Mt Albert Library for offering the space, and Auckland Council Albert-Eden Local Board for funding the workshop. Your support made this possible!

You can find the research and impact report for the workshop on our website: https://tardigrade.world/object-reborn

What are your thoughts on transforming waste into art? We'd love to hear your ideas!

"Most historical participatory art (thinking from the avant-gardes to the present) has been staged within the confines of an art environment, be it a gallery, museum, or event to which visitors arrive predis- posed to have an art experience or already belonging to a set of values and interests that connect them to art."

Tardigrade World is a group of individuals working on exploring new ways of coping with overflowed rubbish and information which is what our world is filled currently and was merging since mid of last century.

On one hand, we are struggling with too much information that we cannot fully-processed and on the other hand, we keep producing rubbish that we lack responsibilities of.

We want to practice a new culture which fast-forwarding the process of digesting information and slowing down the speed of producing rubbish.

Right now, we are working on sustainable projects and workshops at schools and community centers, art exhibitions in local galleries, publication and podcast within the topic and making up-cycled art items for sale.
