These works of art are extracted from mechanical waste materials, nature recycled, each seeking to preserve natural resources and create an environmental conscience, mainly through animal figures in our own ecosystem. Each artist is a designer. This art program was in response to the Costa Rican national public programs directed towards the country's vulnerable youth. Each piece communicates and recognizes the value of nature as a divine creation. They are applying highly interactive methods. The artists are all between the ages of 9 and 18.

We wish to thank the Costa Rica Embassy for their support in this internatonal art exchange and the artistic children of PANI. Come Visit.
