I made this piece for the wlyb (e)motive exhibition 2010. It is made from piles of identical recycled postcards that I put in the compost bin for 6 months.

Essential. Termites eat the humus content, and the soil is very sandy and does not retain moisture.

As seen from the Xstrata Treetop walkway.

compostables are nestled between two layers of netting. items break down over time and feed plants at base. I'm guessing that I could eventually put plants into the fence!

"Here I am composting my carrot peels. Composting helps me fertilize my garden. It keeps what I grow organic, and I do not have to buy commercial fertilizers. It also keeps compostable material out of the landfill, which is actually harmful (gas pockets in the landfill are not good)"

For Earth Month 2012, Green Mountain Energy employees are sharing photos of how they live green each and every day. Both at work and at home, we all try to reduce our daily environmental impact in various ways. Here's a glimpse into how our employees are living green - and tips on what you can do to reduce your impact, too!

A simple check for compost moisture is as follows.

Grab a hand full and squeeze it as hard as you can. If water comes dripping out it is likely that the pile is too wet. If no water appears at all the pile is too dry.

If you squeeze and a bit of water appears between the cracks of your fingers the moisture content is just right.

Notice in this picture the moisture between the pinky and ring fingers. Just below the middle finger is a bit more water. This pile is just right.

Just another spontaneous growth from the compost pile.

My highly complex 2 compost bin system

At the Union Square Farmers' Market. Composting by the Lower East Side Ecology Center.

Item# CAG001009

 

Made from 100% recycled Polypropylene plastic. This composter narrows towards the top. It has a lid but no bottom, and it has access gates on all four sides. Some assembly is required - the four sides and the lid ship unassembled.

Time to remove the composted waste from the toilets. A surprisingly un-smelly job!

your plants will love it.

I am currently in residence at the Andes Sprouts Society artist's program in Stamford, New York. the goal of my residency is to combine science, art, and sustainable farming. I am working with compost worms to learn the movement, interactions, and ecology of this amazing animals. As an artist in residence I am creating paintings in collaboration with the worms. This detail, from a picture that is 11x14 inches, is an example of the work. I hope you enjoy it.

Il Collettivo Curatoriale composto dagli studenti della quinta edizione del LUISS Master of Art, sotto la guida di Achille Bonito Oliva, ha presentato, presso il Museo Carlo Bilotti, la mostra Delta ti – In tempo reale. La scelta del titolo, Delta ti, deriva dalla formula che in fisica esprime il concetto di intervallo di tempo e vuole sintetizzare la condizione contemporanea in cui la realtà cambia rapidamente e tutto si concentra in un unico momento, un intervallo sospeso, il tempo reale. Un percorso scandito dalle opere di 18 artisti contemporanei di diverse generazioni, provenienze e poetiche: scultura, fotografia, video, installazioni, performances e interventi sonori danno forma a un'indagine estetica e critica tra arte e vita.

Compost after its done cooking. Heading out to make our veggie garden even more awesome.

Turning the compost pile we made last month

Found this fly in a compost bin - funny where you look for insects when there are none flying around. It didn't seem very active and kept on preening, so was pretty easy to photograph.

This is the piece I tore out and added to the compost
