I attended a fantastic fund-raiser last night for Sustainable Gardening Australia. It's a wonderful organisation and the website is very extensive, with no end of topics, information pages and factsheets on sustainable gardening.
Some performance art at fund-raiser - there were these paper mache sculptures of skyscrapers (attached to two men crouched below sand-pit tables), and when the haunting music started, slowly came to life, uprooting the soily buildings from the sand-pit and wearing monster masks, proceeded to scare the crowd with their moans and roars, dispersing soil everywhere. The cantankerous monsters obviously represented the earth, having a good whinge at us humans.
I thought with all the art I have posted on this blogspot, I should have a dedication to all artists who help us to give the earth the good press it deserves. So I thought it was time I posted this painting, by Andrew Ioannidis again. Bellisima!

A blog by Nicolle Kuna
A blog about sustainable landscaping and some eco-humour and eco-creativity.
Inside this blog we look at everything that is encroaching in to our natural urban landscapes – outdoor rooms (errchkem), weeds, urban noise, excess nutrientsThere’s a bit of art to add extra colour and inspiration. We believe in making sustainability fun - more gaming, less shaming.
