Based on Wiradjuri Land in Central West NSW, Shani Nottingham is a multi-disciplinary artist, curator, and educator. Originally working with photography and illustration, her practice now focuses on transforming post-consumer waste into surprising and thought-provoking artworks. She is best known for The Breadtag Project, in which she repurposes discarded breadtags (tiny, often-overlooked pieces of plastic), into large-scale installations and intricate sculptures.
Through her work, she challenges perceptions of value, consumerism, and environmental responsibility, exploring how mundane objects can become both beautiful and meaningful. Each piece is meticulously hand-sorted and crafted, reflecting a slow, mindful approach in contrast to mass production. Her artworks invite dialogue about waste, sustainability, and the impact of single-use plastics, while highlighting the collective effort of communities worldwide who contribute to her projects.
Nottingham's work has been exhibited across Australia and internationally, and is held in public and private collections. She has received multiple awards, including the 2023 Northern Beaches Environmental Art & Design Award (Sculpture).
