Do you know where your art comes from?

And why it matters

Let’s dive into the not-so-pretty side of mass-produced art. You know, when you see a beautiful print online for a suspiciously low price, it’s easy to click “add to cart” without a second thought. But have you ever stopped to wonder where it really came from? Often, those mass-produced pieces are made using materials that aren’t exactly kind to our planet. Think about the chemicals involved in some printing processes, the sheer volume of packaging waste, and the massive carbon footprint from shipping things halfway around the world. It all adds up, and it’s something that really weighs on those of us trying to live a more sustainable life.
