Coast Create
Creativity is the best problem solver.
Louisiana’s economy was historically built through river ways and coast line. This paradise of abundance is now disappearing from the bottom up. Our oysters, seafood, and way of life are all drowning along with it. Climate Culture, Glass Half Full, POH farms and Creole Contemporary, are teaming up to activate community efforts through the power of art.
Creativity as a catalysts for change.
“Every Year Louisiana looses 25-35 square miles of land to costal erosion”
We’ve got concrete plans to keep Louisiana’s coast strong
The Breakdown:
We make environmentally innovative sculptures.
Our exhibitions, activations , and donations raise funds for our First Large ScalePublic Art Piece.
Merging Art and Science into environmental Activism.
Artists collaborate with biologists, engineers, and geologists to create a fundraising campaign designed to blast international crowdfunding support to current coastal restorative efforts in the Gulf.
How it all started. What is REEFBUDS®?
REEFBUDS® is a patented, carbon-negative, plant-based biocrete designed to mimic coral reefs and marine ecosystems. Inspired by coral reefs, it mimics nature’s efficiency in habitat creation, wave attenuation, and carbon cycling. Made from local organic and inorganic waste streams, it transforms byproducts into regenerative infrastructure, performing like nature itself.
With over 11,000 deployments globally, REEFBUDS® has demonstrated the potential to support the recovery of marine habitats in a range of environments. We are currently fundraising for research and validation to pursue deployment approval in the Gulf of Mexico.
Pending regulatory approval and further validation, we believe this material has the potential to support the restoration of Louisiana’s coastal ecosystems, contribute to protecting frontline communities from land loss and hurricane damage, and help foster a renewed cultural stewardship of our ecological treasures in the Gulf.
Our workshops, art auctions, activations, and exhibitions raise funds to address the urgent challenges of ecological and economic instability in Louisiana. We believe ART can be a powerful catalyst for cultural problem-solving and community resilience.
Join us in regenerating Louisiana from the coast up. Instead of running from technology… lets merge arts and innovation as a creative problem solver.
