ReUse. ReHouse

  • Sarah Yeats

Our world is facing serious economic, religious, ethnic, and social division. We were briefed to create a solution or campaign on 'Peace through Partnership' using the Toms One for One concept. This is a story-telling campaign that connects the parties on both sides. Cement is now a chosen building material for people in rural communities because it is cheaper and easy to transport. Glass bottles create insulation, therefore combining the two in colder areas ie: Lesotho can create a warmer and appealing household. This will also make the cement go further and create a useful way for us to use glass bottles. I was inspired by The Owl House in South Africa for this project. Helen Martins used glass bottles in her sculptures and her house. https://www.theowlhouse.co.za This is a storyboard/narrative which would be played over social media (Youtube, Facebook, Instagram).
