SUSTAINABILITY IN CREATIVE COMMISSIONING.
We are not only a trusted curator but a catalyst for responsible cultural change. From hosting the UK’s largest Sustainable Artist Database to pioneering new models of ethical commissioning, we set a standard for how art can reflect, challenge and elevate the values of tomorrow’s organisations.
SUSTAINABLE ARTIST DATABASE.
Creative practice grounded in responsibility.
We proudly host the UK’s largest curated database of sustainable artists—each selected for their commitment to low-impact materials, regenerative methods and culturally rooted practice.
This growing network reflects a new vision for commissioning: one that embeds environmental care, ethical making and community engagement at every stage of the process. From reclaimed materials to climate storytelling, circular design to co-created works—these artists are shaping what a more conscious creative future looks like.
What does a sustainable artist look like?
We consider five guiding principles:
MATERIAL INTELLIGENCE — circular, reclaimed, bio-based and low-impact sourcing
PROCESS + STUDIO ETHICS — low-waste practice, carbon awareness, regenerative thinking
MESSAGE + THEME — works that centre ecology, climate, interdependence and repair
COMMUNITY + CARE —co-creation, place-based respect and long-term stewardship
PROFESSIONAL ALIGNMENT — artists ready to collaborate, deliver and stretch within commissioning contexts
This isn’t a checklist—it’s a living, evolving reflection of values in practice. Whether you're looking to commission responsibly, align with ESG frameworks, or inspire through art, this database is your starting point.
Because sustainability isn’t just about what a work is made of—it’s about how it’s made, why it matters, and what it gives back.
