Cables, ribbon cables and other components formed a logo representing the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. #### Art in EVERYTHING At UID, GD Goenka University, Gurugram, I led a four-day workshop around "LOOP.ed" for International E-waste Day 2023. Students explored installations and wearable pieces, including CD dresses on mannequins. #### Sustainable apparel My 4-day "Eco-Chic" workshop at Pearl Academy involved wearable art, jewellery and mural designs. As "Expert Facilitator", I guided work including e-waste dresses, rings, necklace and earrings. At NIFT Kannur, I ran "Designing Sustainable Apparels from E-Waste" on 12 to 14 March 2025 in the Seminar Hall. Students created dresses on mannequins. The participant interview describes three pieces made in two days of creation within the programme. #### Mentoring and discussion I have mentored students at Chanakya University in "Sustainable Upcycling Art Creation". My themes include contemporary eco-art, sustainability and design thinking. At Christ University's Media Meet on 7 Sept 2023, I gave "Sustainable Art Showcase & Guest Talk" on the 17 SDGs. Other engagements here include Samvada Baduku and BNMIT Open Day. These examples describe particular programmes, not a standard batch size, kit or duration. ## About Vishwanath Mallabadi I’m Vishwanath. I enjoy showing students the textures and forms inside old gadgets. Once they see that potential, they begin finding their own ideas.
