BioBuchBerlin

From waste paper to a sustainable book on the art of living.

In the upcycling workshop “BioBuchBerlin – From Waste Paper to Sustainable Art Book” on September 20, 2024, participants can create their own picture book with themes, wishes, visions, etc., that are relevant to them, in an ecological and artistic way. Using waste paper and cardboard, flyers, advertisements, magazines, etc., which often end up unread in the recycling bin, we will combine our personal favorite texts and images. These can later be further developed with other leftover materials into truly unique, personal works of art.

Inspired by the alternative Argentinian publishing cooperative Eloisa Cartonera, which collaborates with the waste paper collectors in Buenos Aires, the Cartoneros, the idea arose for a self-created, sustainably produced personal LifeArtBook.

Suitable for ages 6 and up, and family-friendly. You are welcome to bring your own waste paper. Tools such as scissors, glue, and other materials are available and can also be brought along.
