From hundreds of pieces of discarded rubber, plastic, wood waste, aluminum, paper, and fabric, the possibilities of aesthetics and application could be found where it does not usually belong, and in ways least expected. In an attempt to build a pathway to sustainable future examples, and with the imagination of our artists, designers, and creatives, this exhibition will showcase the results of recycling workshops by Brazilian artist Lily Luz. Renowned Iraqi artist Waleed Qaisi will display his unique sculptures that are molded entirely from scrap. The show will also include the works of architect, musician, and visual artist Laith Alessi, as well as Nut & Ptah, who will be playing on the concept of upcycling and recycling from a human perspective, merging recycling and fashion, with a piece called Spiritual Upcycling. The fun and upbeat works of artist Maha Gharaibeh, who incorporates available discarded materials and old furniture pieces will also be on display.
