Mundo Profundo – Participatory Recycling Workshop
This 3-hour interactive workshop for children (ages 6–12) and their families to bring their own recyclable waste and transform it into collaborative art.
Chaná de Sá’s artistic practice is strongly anchored in environmental education, youth empowerment, and community-based outreach work seen in Green Art Mafalala: Together for Our Planet (2021), a British High Commission–funded project linked to the COP26 Climate Summit, a partnership with Associação IVERCA and the Maputo City Council, Chaná led a 30-day artistic residency with workshops on plastic waste re-use and community art interventions using solid waste materials.
Mundo Profundo (2023), a recycling art workshop held at CCFM, and The Other Face of the World (2023), transformed plastic collected from beaches into public artworks, engaging youth and families, blending education and environmental stewardship with accessible hands-on art practices
