Overlander.tv - Byron Bay, Environmental Artist

Travel Videos - Australia : Byron Bay (pop. 6130)It seems every backpacker must make the pilgrimage to Byron Bay. Once the centre for peace, love and alternative lifestyles, now home of a growing number of baby boomer 'seachangers' from capital cities down south. With this new mix, Byron is evolving, (and the real estate prices are going through the roof).Arrived in Byron Sunday night. Byron attracts creative types and also has a huge collection of practitioners of alternative health therapies. To try and capture this I am interviewing John Dahlsen an artist. John makes a daily trip to the beach where he collects plastic waste washed up the night before. From this waste he creates art pieces. I found his art to be like a double edged sword, I was both astounded by the beauty of his art, and repelled by the thought it was all collected from our beaches.

yea...I lived there for 10 yrs and theres a good side and a very dark side to this fantastic area.....its like a modern town with its overpopulated streets amd theres no rules apart from trying to do whats best for you! Which means its very hedonistic....not a place to raise children, but others would beg to differ
