What is Sustainable Art?
When I think of sustainable art, I think of creating sculptures from recycled materials. I also think of Spencer Shay from iCarly, who created many abstract pieces made from the most random things, like a plastic bottle robot.

Safe to say, the precarious combination of extremely high stakes and very low reward is probably an Asian parent’s worst nightmare.
