RETHINK. RECYCLE. REDESIGN. was born out of Jacine Arias' MFA thesis project which explores how green design can be used as an effective instrument for social change.
"From the moment I started thinking about my thesis, I knew I wanted it to be more than just a paper with a related art project. My experience in the non-profit world made the idea of an art event to raise awareness about sustainability a perfect solution. I also wanted the fundraiser to benefit a local organization whose mission was aligned with the focus of my thesis, to promote green design and sustainability. Sustainable OKC was the logical choice. The event will also give me the opportunity to showcase my green poster series printed on paper I recycled and made by hand."—Jacine Arias
