Up-cycling tales from an abandoned site

Unorthodox up-cycling building materials: an old cardboard box, a wood plank and a mattress coil are some of the forgotten objects found in this abandoned building site where I’m working from. As an artist with origins in architecture, I am interested in repurposing building materials, so they lend a bit of the genius loci to the painting as they leave their marks; a friction point between the derelict building of the past and the story written today, in this piece, as we speak.
