Abstract
AI is becoming increasingly popular in artistic practices, but the tools for informing practitioners about the environmental impact (and other sustainability implications) of AI are adapted for other contexts than creative practices -- making the tools and sustainability implications of AI not accessible for artists and creative practitioners. In this position paper, I describe two empirical studies that aim to develop environmental sustainability reflection systems for AI Arts, and discuss and introduce Explainable Sustainability in for AI Arts.
