| dc.description.abstract | The University of Technology Sydney (UTS) has an ongoing project with communities and organisations Magno Design (Temangung) and Sapu Upcycle Collective (Salatiga) in Indonesia. This exhibition is curated by Alexandra Crosby (UTS). The project brings together Indonesian and Australian designers, design writers, design teachers and design thinkers to work on sustainable futures. The exhibition features designs that upcycle and reuse and also celebrate Indonesian culture and creativity. Also included are banners created by artists and designers for Festival Mata Air 2016 (Indonesia) with a focus on saving important waterways. During 2016, the Peacock Gallery has had a focus on ‘gardens’ and this exhibition recalls the remediation of the area along the Duck River that had become an industrial wasteland and a rubbish tip by the 1960s, and that became the Auburn Botanic Gardens in the 1970s. The public program at the gallery also includes activities in collaboration with Council’s Sustainability team during National Recycling Week (7-13 November). | en_US |

| pubs.rights-statement | Research background: This research asks: What local design practices are emerging in Indonesia to address urgent problems such as urbanisation and environmental change? While important work has been done by scholars of Indonesia to identify emerging forms of creative practice in the related fields of media studies (Lim, 2006; Sen, K. and Hill, D. 2010;) and art (Jurriens, E 2015) there is very little research in the field of design. Research contribution: The exhibition ‘Indonesian Design Emerging’ arrived at new understandings of Indonesian design practice by presenting the work of five important design groups: Sapu, Magno, Tanam Untuk Kehidupan, Black Boots, and Spedagi. The exhibition pointed to the ways the collective and individual practices of the designers address the challenges of sustainability. The exhibition deals with the tensions between globally circulating environmentalism and the way design practice manifests in particular local contexts. Significance: This exhibition was funded through the highly competitive Australia-Indonesia Institute grant program. It was shown at Peacock Gallery after being selected for the 2016 program. This was the first time this selection of Indonesian designers have been curated into an exhibition in Australia, and the first time Peacock Gallery held an exhibition focusing on Indonesia. It also is the first time that the full product range by internationally acclaimed designer Singgih Kartono was exhibited in Australia. The exhibition included a catalogue and a program of public events, which were well attended and of significance to the Sydney design community as well as the Indonesian community in Sydney. | en_US |

| pubs.rights-statement | Research background: This research asks: What local design practices are emerging in Indonesia to address urgent problems such as urbanisation and environmental change? While important work has been done by scholars of Indonesia to identify emerging forms of creative practice in the related fields of media studies (Lim, 2006; Sen, K. and Hill, D. 2010;) and art (Jurriens, E 2015) there is very little research in the field of design. Research contribution: The exhibition ‘Indonesian Design Emerging’ arrived at new understandings of Indonesian design practice by presenting the work of five important design groups: Sapu, Magno, Tanam Untuk Kehidupan, Black Boots, and Spedagi. The exhibition pointed to the ways the collective and individual practices of the designers address the challenges of sustainability. The exhibition deals with the tensions between globally circulating environmentalism and the way design practice manifests in particular local contexts.

Abstract:
The University of Technology Sydney (UTS) has an ongoing project with communities and organisations Magno Design (Temangung) and Sapu Upcycle Collective (Salatiga) in Indonesia. This exhibition is curated by Alexandra Crosby (UTS). The project brings together Indonesian and Australian designers, design writers, design teachers and design thinkers to work on sustainable futures. The exhibition features designs that upcycle and reuse and also celebrate Indonesian culture and creativity. Also included are banners created by artists and designers for Festival Mata Air 2016 (Indonesia) with a focus on saving important waterways. During 2016, the Peacock Gallery has had a focus on ‘gardens’ and this exhibition recalls the remediation of the area along the Duck River that had become an industrial wasteland and a rubbish tip by the 1960s, and that became the Auburn Botanic Gardens in the 1970s. The public program at the gallery also includes activities in collaboration with Council’s Sustainability team during National Recycling Week (7-13 November).
