| The Idea | The Artists | The Events | Greenwall Resource |
| Mags Harries and Clara Wainwright, co-curators of Greed, Guilt and Grappling invited Susan Rodgerson and Artists for Humanity to create a green wall where visitors could participate and share information about sustain-ability and eco-friendly projects. |
| For The Green Wall Project, Artists for Humanity created three banners painted as three of the four elements - earth, air, and water to be a backdrop for visitors to highlight sustainable projects relevant to each element: ecology represented with towering trees on the earth panel, wind turbines represented on the air panel, and ripples representing the energy of water on the water panel. |
| Banners were painted on reusable surfaces suitable for posting articles and ideas. Posting materials can be found on the square table made by Artists For Humanity from acrylic resin and recycled catalogues. Please add your comments and suggestions to The Green Wall. |
| Thank you to the Artists For Humanity paint crew including, but not limited to Garima Sood, Rashad Nelson, Nestor Martino, Wei Chang Chen, David Wang, Eleanor Wong, with direction from mentors Jason Talbot, Rob Gibbs, and Quyen Truong. |
