Cecilia Garcia-Linz is Queer artist, mother, grandmother, activist, labor organizer and chef. The mission of Enviro-Mental Art is to create art that is accessible and affordable to all while drawing attention to environmental, social , economic and political issues using up-cycled materials.
A large percentage of “waste” in our landfills could have been reused, recycled or composted to conserve our dwindling resources instead of being carelessly tossed away. The pieces I create are assembled almost entirely from rescued materials that were either discarded in the environment or headed for the landfill or recycling station-including hardware, adhesives and finishes. A number of pieces are created from my son’s broken toys to avoid throwing them in the trash. Occasionally an element was purchased at a yard sale or thrift store when I could not scavenge the necessary component to complete a project.
