“Old Plant Stand - Repurposed 1”
24"x36" mixed media A dis-assembled old bamboo plant stand, that was repurposed into an art piece. A bamboo plant stand, that was originally used to displace my artwork at the Kaleid Gallery, later was left outside. As the years passed, the plant stand aged and started to fall apart. It was then that it was reborn / repurposed into an art piece. |
