Dirk van der Kooij experiments with recycled plastic from discarded household fridges to create sustainable products.
The irregular beauty of recycled plastic is expressed in this playful chair, made using a self-built plastic-extruding robot that is programmed to squeeze out layers of thick tubes of recycled plastic to form the shape of the chair.

Waste Age: What can design do?
(October 2021 – February 2022)
We all know waste is a big problem. So how are we going to fix it?
A new generation of designers is rethinking our relationship to everyday things. From fashion to food, electronics to construction, even packaging - finding the lost value in our trash and imagining a future of clean materials and a circular economy could point the way out of the Waste Age.
Explore major new exhibits that capture the devastating impact of waste including a large-scale art installation by Ibrahim Mahama made from e-waste in Ghana.
The exhibition showcases some of the visionary designers who are reinventing our relationship with waste, including Formafantasma, Stella McCartney, The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, Lacaton & Vassal, Fernando Laposse, Bethany Williams, Phoebe English and Natsai Audrey Chieza.
'We must face the problem of waste – we can no longer ignore what happens to things when we get rid of them. Instead of thinking of objects as things that have an end life, they can have many lives. This is not just an exhibition it is a campaign, and we all have an active part in our future.' Gemma Curtin, Curator.

Hubert Selby, Jr.(1928 – 2004) fue un escritor estadounidense, particularmente recordado por su libro Last Exit to Brooklyn (1964). Este afiche también es parte de la serie (sin nombre aún) de homenajes a artistas a los que admiro. A dos tintas, para futuras copias serigráficas.

Hubert Selby, Jr.(1928 – 2004) was a writer from the U.S.A, mostly remembered for his 1964 book Last Exit to Brooklyn. This poster is also part of the series of homages (yet unnamed) to artists I admire. It's two inked, for future silkscreen copies.
Cubby is playful and endearing, but not much of a cuddler. She is always in “kitten mode” zooming here and there, wadding up the floor blanket and chasing after toys. Cubby is good with other cats and around dogs. She has not been around children much and might be a better choice for older, calm children. Cubby has been with us since 9/21/2008.

It's a universal gesture. It surpasses any language barrier. It doesn't matter if you're male or female, if you're black, white, yellow, blue, or green, if your IQ is off the charts or you're just the "Average Joe". The fist shot straight and high in the air...the universal gesture for "Yes!!!" or "We won!!!". Can it be any clearer? It doesn't matter what team colors you are wearing, this gesture is understood anywhere. On this day, for a moment, I was completely captivated by rows upon rows of this same gesture; above me, behind me, below me, beside me...all around me. The thrill was definitely contagious and I couldn't help but pump my own fist high in the air along with my fellow fans. Happiness is contagious. I hope you all catch it in some way.
And just a side note...that flesh colored blur on the lower right hand side of the portrait...that's my sister's hand on it's way up to it's victorious position. I guess that's why I wasn't so disappointed to see it there, when any other time I would have just trashed the photo. I think I felt like it proved my point...happiness, and this gesture, are contagious. She was infected, too. :)
