Where rich and poor meet: a craft response to climate change, talk by Kevin Murray

Monday 14 July – 6pm

The Kyoto protocols call for a multilateral approach to global warming. Third world demands for economic growth have to be factored in alongside first world abstinence. The doomsday scenario has opened opportunities for equal dialogue between the rich and poor of the world.

How might craft factor in this?

Emerging practices include collaborations between designers and traditional artisans. What is ‘world craft’ and what role might it play in building the trust necessary for negotiations to continue beyond Bali?

Venue: JamFactory board room, 1st Floor JamFactory building, Lion Arts Centre, 19 Morphett Street, Adelaide.
