FROM SOURCE TO SOURCE
I am currently part of an artist group launching a community project called “From Source to Source”. It will unfold by Tsongongpo, one of Asia’s largest lakes, surrounded by Tibetan communities. The accumulating waste has not only marred the lake’s natural beauty but also contaminated water and soil, causing considerable harm to the local ecosystem and communities. Our project will combine participatory video, performance art, documentary filmmaking and a social media campaign to address the threat that tourism and garbage pollution pose to the health of the local culture and environment.
Through an “innovative recycling” art project, our goal is to raise public awareness about environmental challenges and mobilize Tibetan grassroots communities to unite in safeguarding their ecosystem. By leveraging public discussions on social media, we hope to push manufacturers such as Coca-Cola China, Master Kong, Nongfu Spring, Wahaha, and others to introduce new measures and take responsibility for waste disposal.
