Sustainable Artist - Yuken Teruya

While researching into the Designers, Artists and Architects that create their work in ethical ways and making it sustainable; They could do this either by using recycled materials, organic materials and materials that are sourced ethically.  

I have come across an artist who's work is made from toilet roll tubes, old carrier bags and more.  His work is intricate and delicate and personally I think that the pieces he creates are beautiful.

The more examples of his work that I find the more mesmerizing I find the intricacy and delicacy of them.

What do you think?

Sustainable Fabric Samples

For the new brief the main topic is Sustainability.  One of the tasks is to research into sustainable fabrics and to collect samples.  The types of fabric I am looking for are organic, recycled and ethnically made fabrics.  I contacted a number of companies to ask for samples and on Friday my first set of samples arrived.

These samples are from http://www.organiccotton.biz/ I did have to pay for them but for the amount I received they were very reasonable and include a wide variety and therefore would give me a lot of choice if deciding what to use for a final garment.

Do you know any sustainable fabric companies?
