Other

Dimitrijevic, K (2025) KraalD: Plastic Waste Ecologies, Curated works made from reused single-use plastics by Dr Katarina Dimitrijevic aka KraalD.We live in an era of plastic debris. From an individual perspective, it is challenging to perceive the extent of plastic pollution due to its proximity, planetary entanglement, and the multiplicities of scale.The curated installations in this exhibition narrate the social and material transformation of plastic waste. A novel, aesthetically positive waste design language supports change in material values and disposal rituals through maintenance art and hands-on reuse tactics with single-use plastic packaging.KraalD's hands-on exploration of designing with plastic waste promotes the reuse of single-use plastics. The exhibition promotes waste and environmental awareness, generating concepts and future(s) that convey new materiality perspectives and egalitarian planetary worldviews.Dr Katarina Dimitrijevic's research is situated in practice, drawing on interdisciplinary art-design, discard studies, feminist materiality, and environmental science. Through speculative design with plastic waste agency, KraalDesignedisposal (KraalD), UK-based praxis, intervenes to build positive relations with plastic waste, visualising plastic pollution and entanglement of mismanaged plastic waste in nature.The exhibition is open to all visitors, inviting them to co-design and contribute to the interactive exhibits.Exhibition dates: 16 June - 9 July 2025 Martin Hall Exhibition Space.
