? A Reused Medium: From Cultural Waste to Artistic Expression
This numbered CD was recovered and transformed through an artistic reuse approach.
Hand-painted with acrylic, it embodies my vision of contemporary upcycling art: giving a second life to materials destined for incineration.
Materials:
- Reused CD
- Acrylic paint
- Protective varnish
Transform rather than discard.
Let the material be reborn.
?♀️ Side A — Varnel: The First Contact
The first side depicts a stylised climbing shoe.
A symbol of the first contact with the wall.
- Every hold engages the body.
- Every choice carries intention.
In climbing as in creation, the gesture matters.
? Side B — Thyrex: Matter in Motion
The second side evokes a geode in motion.
It symbolises the inner transformation of matter.
- What once seemed inert becomes alive.
- What was meant to be discarded becomes expression.
♻️ A Committed Artwork
This creation is part of both an ecological and artistic approach:
- Reuse of cultural media supports
- Waste reduction
- Creative enhancement of materials
- Gentle awareness of the circular economy
Commitment does not stop at the summit.
