No podemos estar mรกs felices de haber podido colaborar este aรฑo con el Education Lab de Hauser & Wirth Menorca a travรฉs de nuestra Alianza Plastic Free Menorca, que bajo el lema โUna invitaciรณn a mirarโ, ofrece un espacio creativo que toma como referencia la obra artรญstica de Eduardo Chillida durante sus estancias en Menorca, invitando a los visitantes a contemplar de nuevo el paisaje, y, en especial, el mar.
Como punto de partida e inspirados en la escultura de Chillida โHomenaje a la mar IV (Homage to the Sea IV)โ, Hauser & Wirth Menorca ha ofrecido diversos talleres con usuarios de centros de dรญa de toda la isla para que crearan sus propios homenajes al mar, reciclando residuos plรกsticos recogidos de las playas de Menorca por nuestra Alianza Menorca Sin Plรกstico.

Last week we had the opportunity to participate in the 3rd Global Gathering of the Conservation Collective, jointly organised by the Conservation Collective and our sister foundation Devon Environment Foundation. It has been an incredibly energising and inspiring few days, where we have been able to discuss and learn about the challenges faced by the 20 foundations belonging to the network within our local contexts, sharing lessons learned and, above all, highlighting our capacity to achieve a global impact through partnership and collaboration. We were also able to visit inspiring projects supported by Devon Environment Foundation such as The Apricot Centre or Till the Coast is Clear. It was truly awesome!
To top off a memorable week, we attended โThe Collectives 2024โ Awards Gala in London organised by the Conservation Collective, in which we were awarded the โBiggest Impact 2024โ prize for the work we have carried out through our Plastic Free Menorca Alliance during the year 2023. Weโre so proud!

We are very pleased to have been able to collaborate with this yearโs Hauser & Wirth Menorcaโs Education Lab through our Plastic Free Menorca Alliance, which under the slogan โAn invitation to lookโ, offers a creative space inspired by the artistic work of Eduardo Chillida during his stays in Menorca, inviting visitors to contemplate the landscape, and in particular the sea.
As a starting point and inspired by Chillidaโs sculpture โHomage to the Sea IVโ, Hauser & Wirth Menorca has offered several workshops with users of day care centres all over the island to create their own tributes to the sea, recycling plastic waste collected from the beaches of Menorca by our Plastic Free Menorca Alliance.
