Panel Discussion: Artwork Ingredients List: Creating a Tool for Responsible Consumption and Production in the Arts
Moderator: Gilbert Guaring
Panelists: Professor Nick Barter, Christopher Fleming, Lindy Lee

All of us are used to seeing labels on our food or clothes but less so on other goods. The advantage of labels is that they allow the customer a form of transparency around the product or service and they can inform them about where the product came from (not just a place but all inputs) and also about what to do with the product at end of life - repair, reuse, recycle, product take back. This panel discussion takes you on a journey on how UAP and its artists work towards creating an artwork ingredient list for all of its projects. Most importantly, this panel will show how the ingredient list helps create offsets to help the environment and the community.
