DON’T THROW OUT YOUR WASTE, ENTER WASTE2ART INSTEAD!

Entries are now open for the 2023 NetWaste Waste2Art competition, which challenges artists of all ages and abilities to repurpose ‘waste’ items into fantastic works of art.

This year’s theme, Textiles and Fast Fashion, is aimed at getting people thinking about the effects of the disposable fashion trend and the impacts it has on our environment.

Coordinating our local Waste2Art competition is Orange Library’s Monica Engel who’s excited to get people involved.

“If you’re interested, start thinking about what you’re going to make. And have a look in your cupboards, it’s surprising what you can find that you can use to make something beautiful,” Monica said.

Monica believes the competition can alter the way people perceive waste, and particularly our relationship to fashion, given the theme this year.

“It’s about understanding not only the problems, but also the solutions to waste,” she said.

The Waste2Art competition is open to anyone and categories include: 2-Dimensional (poster/painting/collage/drawing), 3-Dimensional (sculpture/ installation), and functional (furniture/craftworks and wearable objects).

“Established artists are welcome to enter, but we do get a lot of amateur artists entering, and in the past some of those artists have gone on to make a name for themselves,” Monica said.

“What we’re looking for is something conceptual – the ideas coming through of the waste problem, or the solution.”

Entry is free and must be submitted to the library by Wednesday, May 31.

The exhibition will run from June 19 - June 30 at the Orange library, with judging taking place in the first week and winners announced at the official exhibition opening on Friday, June 23.

All of the winning artworks from each local competition will be transported to a Regional Exhibition.

Orange City Library is also hosting a number of Sewing Maker Space Workshops, to give you inspiration and new skills to tackle a Waste2Art project of your own. They will be held at the library on May 3, 10, 17 and 24 from 4-6pm. Bookings are essential and can be made at eventbrite.com or Orange City Library 6393 8132.

Set on 5.4 hectares, less than 15 kilometres from Orange, this renovated and extended brick veneer, four-bedroom home, three bathrooms, three lounge areas (one currently used as pool room), a well-finished all-electric kitchen with an induction cooktop and a 6.5kW micro-inverter solar system to cut electricity costs.

“It’s a really attractive house,” selling agent Tom Sheehan of Williams Machin Real Estate Orange said.

“And the extension is built in a really attractive fashion that provides space, but the design is very focused on having a good view from every room and so there’s big glass windows, in the extension, they’re double glazed, and they look out over the garden, or the views of the rural countryside. It’s just very nicely set up.”

There is reverse cycle air conditioning throughout the property as well as a wood-burning heater in one lounge area, plus a large gas fireplace in the main lounge for a cosy feel on a winter’s night.

The property also boasts a double garage with an attached double carport, and a large American-style barn with two internal stables, concrete floor, power, water connected, plus water troughs in each paddock.

“And there are two paddock stables also, so it’s quite well set up for horses,” added Tom.

“There’s a good dam on the property that’s pretty much spring fed, in that area underground water is almost a certainty.

“And the dam, for those who are interested, has quite a lot of yabbies in it. So for families who want to go catch a few yabbies, that’s a really interesting feature of the property.”

Along with the spring-fed dam, there are two rainwater tanks with a total capacity of 170,000 litres.

“There’s lots of water and anybody could develop a really attractive garden there; it’s got some mature trees and hedges but it could be developed into a really nice block,” Tom said.

“It is just a comfortable house to live in and well set up to entertain people — that’s one of its great features also. There’s a nice entrance, a big reception area… It’s a nice house and quite handy to town.”
