Transforming the Discarded into Art
Join us as we celebrate creativity, sustainability, and innovation through upcycled art — where discarded, repurposed, and found materials are reimagined into powerful works of expression.
This exhibition highlights the importance of seeing potential in the overlooked, showing how everyday objects can be transformed into something meaningful and inspiring. Each piece tells a story of transformation — not just of materials, but of how we view art, waste, and possibility.
Discover how what was once forgotten can become unforgettable.
