Subversive plasticity presents plastics from our everyday world in a new light.

With exhibits exploring the interplay between materials and the forms they take in plastic objects, it challenges people to build their own ‘plastics literacy.’

​

Subversive plasticity incorporates artworks inspired by and made from plastic waste, commissioned works from members of Stoke-on-Trent’s arts charity, B-arts, participants from local communities and findings from cutting-edge research carried out by Keele University staff and students.

​

The exhibition also incorporates interactive, hands-on activities.
