Reclaimed Visions:  The Art of Upcycling

Reclaimed Visions: The Art of Upcycling

Upcycling is the art of transformation—giving discarded materials new life and purpose. Unlike recycling, which breaks down materials for reuse, upcycling elevates them, turning waste into something of greater value. Upcycled art is more than a creative practice—it’s a powerful statement on sustainability. By transforming discarded materials into thought-provoking works, artists can shed light on environmental issues, encourage sustainable habits, and inspire meaningful change. Upcycling not only reduces waste and conserves resources but also challenges us to see beauty and potential in what others might throw away.

Check out my piece “Raw Edges” on display!
