Social Sculpture and Sustainable Art: The Sevengardens Project Social sculpture is an evolving art form that plays a crucial role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 2030). One remarkable example is Sevengardens, an art project founded by Peter Reichenbach 25 years ago. The project originated with the creation of dye gardens worldwide, aiming to replace synthetic chemical colors with natural alternatives. Modern chemical dyes, whether used in kindergartens or on the walls of prestigious museums, contain microplastics. These microplastics do not just pollute water bodies and marine life but also find their way back into human systems. As art is one of the most powerful tools for societal transformation, it is imperative that it becomes free from harmful substances. A key aspect of sustainable art is inclusive participation. Sevengardens, recognized as a flagship project by the United Nations, is committed to this mission. It ensures accessibility and engagement for all stakeholders, promoting the use of natural dyes as an environmentally friendly and socially responsible artistic practice.
