Recyclage / Surcyclage

Tatiana Wolska

Tatiana Wolska is part of the internaitonal group show Recyclage / Surcyclage at Villa Datris Foundation for contemporary sculpture.

For its 10th exhibition, the Villa Datris Foundation choses to explore recycling in all its forms in contemporary sculpture and to question our relation to objects. At a time when sustainability has become an absolute priority, contemporary artists are taking hold of this fundamental issue with particular acuity. Deliberately, by conviction or by choice, artists resort to waste as an artistic material, renouncing the acquisition of so-called “noble” materials to create or compose their works. These scraps, waste, rubbish, objects left behind and rejected by the flow of consumption find a job, a utility, an identity – a true social metaphor.
