Blue Sky Days

Blue Sky Days, an exhibition by Clemens Habicht, features a sea of colourful sail kites – each a unique piece of art, craft and design – and a new video artwork from footage captured during years of research and development into Habicht’s recycled kite project.

The kites demonstrate sustainable design in action and promote a culture of sustainability both in the manufacturing process and in the global end user market while also promoting discussion around sustainable practices through play. The project is committed to using no new plastics in the production – all components are sourced from either organic materials or recycled materials, reusing spinnaker sails that are no longer fit for sailing to create a valuable resource out of a material otherwise destined for landfill.

Visitors are invited to fly kites with Clemens in a public program on Sat 25 May and participate in workshops on the art of flying traditional single line fighters. The exhibition also coincides with the product launch of the sail kites and the first edition kites will be available to purchase. Blue Sky Days continues until Sat 15th June, 2024.
