As two weeks of climate talks wrap up in Glasgow, Loop meets some Scottish artists leading the charge in sustainable practice and environmental engagement.

From the remote, off-grid peninsula of Scoraig in the Highlands, Zimbabwean artist Fadzai Mwakutuya has been collating climate-related visual art from all over the world in a bid to amplify the voices of those from marginalised communities. As well as a digital exhibition, a selection of the submissions to Fadzai鈥檚 Climate Change Creative project have been printed and displayed around Glasgow during COP26.

The duo behind sustainable furniture company Still Life shed a light on the creative process involved in making their signature stools from thousands of recycled plastic bottle tops, while sculptor Hannah Imlach talks through the motivations behind her structure designed to allow people an ethical encounter with moths.

Embroiderer Tzipporah Johnston has always used her artwork as a means of communicating a message that鈥檚 important to her. Over the last year, she has created three intricate embroidery hoops charting bumblebee species loss over the last century, concluding with a damning prediction for 2120.

In Aberfeldy, woodsman Angus Ross was motivated to create a sustainable craft that was kinder to the environment after witnessing the amount of plastic waste created while working as a product designer in the retail world.
