February Art Walk - 2024
NO ART * NO WINE * NO PIANO
A once beautiful Antarctic landscape has become polluted with plastic. Despite every effort being made to resolve the situation, the plastic is fragmenting into smaller pieces resulting in polystyrene nanoplastics which can pass through the blood-brain barrier of human beings and other animals. Some of our restoration process is available to see inside Black C Art.
