Discarded Disks: Nick Gentry

Nick Gentry

Nick Gentry uses discarded floppy discs to create these large scale portraits! The growing technology industry has led to large amounts of waste ending up in landfill, with 44.7 million metric tonnes of e-waste in 2016. This number seems to be growing with the increasingly prevalent role technology plays in our lives.

Nick will share his experience of waste and sustainability with regards to technology.

Talks start at 17.00, 27 November Wednesday at the St James Hatcham Building, Goldsmiths University.
