The project explores sustainable biorefineries and urban energy accessibility through interdisciplinary art. The focus is on developing interactive, energetically self-sustaining installations using locally collected bio-waste and secondary raw materials within the micro-ecological system of the Karas Gallery neighborhood. Preference is given to artists working in bioart, biohacking, DIY/DIWO, and experimental media.
