: Recycled Art Exhibition
3 April @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm AEDT

RAGE proudly presents its inaugural Recycled Art Exhibition – a major celebration on the war on waste tapping into the creativity, innovation, and talent thriving in local communities. The aim is to showcase artworks that use discarded materials to reimagine their original purpose. Artists will unleash their imagination and be part of something extraordinary, with ideas that champion sustainability, ingenuity and resourcefulness.
Scrap metal and salvaged steel feature prominently, transformed from discarded industrial fragments, decommissioned machinery, and found hardware into striking sculptural forms. Alongside these robust elements, artists repurpose soft plastics, packaging, bubble wrap and beach-found debris, drawing attention to the environmental impact of everyday waste.
RAGE will award $3000 to an artist whose work presents balance a clever use of the materials and for it not to be representative of its original form in material or use.
