As participants of the Abandoned Materials Market, our understanding of
this concept overall was us as consumers being educated about means of conservation
and the alternative use of abandoned things such as general house waste.
The initial
atmosphere and pace of the market was very friendly and controlled with accompanied
music playing at the markets entrance and each booth displaying great aesthetics.
One aspect that really stood out was how tangible all of the market booths
were; everything required us to engage.
Another
theme that stood out throughout most of the stalls was the message of the
market as a cohesive whole. Most of the markets were set up so that the market
runners would give every participant a quick rundown of their booth and voice
their awareness for waste and means to manage and utilize this daily as
consumers.
Regarding
the system of exchange, every group executed a very physical approach to
providing the participants with something to take away for their individual
markets. Examples of this were, recycled seeds, wallets made of paper and fresh
juices made from scraps.
Overall the
Market addressed the theme of abandoned materials to a very articulate degree
by educating the participants as to how to deal with waste with conservation in
mind.
