It's not easy being green--even at Strathmore. And it isn't enough to be sustainable and made from repurposed materials, either. Every piece on display in the Inform/Re-form exhibition has to have artistic integrity as well as a pedigree that can be traced back to an unexpected origin. "When people come to the show it's not going to be obvious, expected ‘found-object' creations," explains Harriet Lesser, Strathmore's Fine Art curator. "It's very contemporary; we're taking a look at what's going on at the edge of this genre of art."
