Documenting the metamorphosis of waste into worth
Every object in our archive is made from materials that already existed. We record what each work is made of and where those materials came from, in the artist’s own words. We publish no estimated tonnage, no CO₂ equivalence and no modelled figure of any kind.

Each a unique piece
Every figure above is counted directly from the works and artists recorded in our archive. Where a measurement has not been documented, we do not display it.
Counts are taken directly from the works in our archive. We publish no mass figure: the weight of reclaimed material in a finished work can only be captured by weighing it before it is used, and we will not estimate it.
Discarded paper
Discarded paper, card and print surplus reworked into pulp, collage and relief surfaces.
Reclaimed textile
Surplus fabric, production offcuts and post-consumer garments.
Agricultural waste
Organic fibres, husks, press remnants and other farming byproducts.
Flip-flops & rubber
Discarded flip-flops and other worn-out rubber and foam footwear.
Beyond
Recycling
Existing material first
We represent artists whose practice begins with material that already exists — reclaimed, discarded or surplus — rather than newly extracted resources.
Recorded provenance
Each work is catalogued with its materials, its category of origin and the artist’s own account of where the material came from. Every piece sold carries a Certificate of Authenticity.
