Recycled, Reseen
RECYCLED, RE-SEEN: Folk Art from the Global Scrap Heap, an exhibition that “pays tribute to the creativity and ingenuity of folk ‘recyclers’ from Africa to Asia to the Americas. Though these artists live in widely dispersed places and diverse cultures, they all share one thing: they take throwaways and transform them into objects of renewed beauty, utility and meaning. They may not think of what they do as recycling, but each of them sees potential where others see only useless junk.” So amazing to see what can be created with what most would consider junk.
