Environmental Sustainability

PADA recognises the role it has to play in preserving the environment and is committed to reducing the carbon footprint of its activities.

We aim to improve our practices whilst advocating for artists to consider the environmental impact of their practice. Across the residency and gallery programmes we hope to minimise our impact and create a sustainable environment for the production and presentation of artwork.

Developed by and for artists, the projects uploaded on this page aim to raise awareness and explore sustainable approaches. An initiative with the goal of creating a library of resources, not only for past, but for future PADA residents and artists worldwide who have an interest in embedding sustainability into their creative practice.

  • We have worked with Alice Bonnot of Villa Villa, external sustainability consultant, to develop this eco-vision, assess our existing efforts and actions, and identify our next steps towards a sustainable operation of the gallery and art residency.
