One Person’s Trash : Exhibition Opening

Exhibition Opening

Join the artist for drinks, snacks, music and trash! Children welcome.

One Person’s Trash … One person’s trash is another person’s treasure, or so they say. Domestic objects are often discarded because they are too broken, too unloved or too replaceable. Explore Lauren Matthews’ embroidered reinterpretation of the wild world of the online Marketplace. Embroidery can be subversive, these works subvert the original intent of the intent of the object or seller in many instances, they might make you laugh or may repulse you. Why do people sell such strange things? In a world of waste, when does it go from waste not want not, to just NOT?
