💡 Did you know that over 50 million metric tons of electronic waste, or e-waste, is generated globally each year, contributing to a significant environmental burden? 🌍🚯 Improper disposal and management of e-waste release hazardous substances into the environment, with an estimated 80% of e-waste ending up in landfills or incinerated. Let's leverage CATIA's innovative solutions♻️ to not only create art but also raise awareness about the negative impact of e-waste pollution and inspire sustainable practices for a cleaner and healthier planet. 🌱🎨 Together, we can make a difference! 🤝Design Contest
How might we design an innovative and visually appealing artwork using CATIA that repurposes e-waste, reduces pollution, and raises awareness about the environmental impact of electronic waste?
INTRODUCTION:
WHY THE NAME "YANTRA"?
The name "Yantra" was chosen to represent the art product created from e-waste due to its symbolic significance. "Yantra" is a Sanskrit word that translates to "instrument" or "machine." In Hindu and Buddhist traditions, yantras are geometric diagrams or symbols used for meditation and spiritual practices. By adopting this name, the art product emphasizes its purpose as a transformative instrument that repurposes discarded electronic components into a meaningful and visually striking creation. It also reflects the intention to harness the power of art and technology to convey a message of recycling and environmental consciousness, aligning with the deeper symbolism and philosophy associated with yantras.
