An online and physical shop sourcing artworks from our blog, producing and selling prints of this work, a detailed directory of local businesses with a multi-criteria search facility, and a business consultancy service developing the online presence, social media campaigns, branding, and promotion of charities and creative projects. Carbon is primarily a group of friends that are each, in varying
degrees of proximity, involved in the creative arts, a group of local community minded artists, poets, musicians, activists, and philanthropists. This group of friends share food, living space, art materials and ideas, to help each other through ‘these tough economic times’, we wish to extend our community values and reach by pooling our resources into an outlet to sell art. We are dedicated to using arts and crafts as a tool for transformative positive change in our community. For this purpose we are setting up a company to provide space for financially struggling artists to display their work for sale alongside popular contemporaries. We will also be running workshops engaging with local charities to help teach socially vulnerable artists to develop their skills and use their talent as a means to generate their own income. It is part of our ethos to help everybody we can, and we will provide as many people with jobs as is possible. Creating a group studio format to engage with people - we seek to inform, to arouse, to reflect, to indicate crises and choices, to educate. Ultimately, we're dedicated to producing thought-provoking content, covering the arts in all its forms. We aim to be at the heart of an industry we love dearly. Carbon Creative Arts Ltd generate online and physical spaces for artists to display their work, and connect with other artists, galleries, and studios. We hope to pursue our goals energetically whilst adhering to the highest ethical standards, opening new art audiences to the beauty and ugliness of the world around them.
