Examination of Kitchen Waste, Red Onion

In "The Examination of Kitchen Waste" series, Rebecca uses a scanner to examine her family's food waste, revealing often-overlooked details. The series reflects on kitchen remnants typically ignored before disposal, which she scans and digitally transforms into high-quality prints. Driven by environmental concerns, Rebecca has deepened her commitment to sustainability. She repurposes old giclée proofs and prints into new, unique artworks, each hand-crafted to fit vintage frames. This practice revitalises materials and encourages viewers to rediscover beauty in the ordinary, fostering a deeper connection with discarded objects. Rebecca's work challenges perceptions of waste, promoting creativity and innovation with overlooked materials. By merging art with environmental consciousness, she advocates for a shift from waste elimination to thoughtful repurposing, inspiring sustainable practices and mindful consumption in both art and daily life.
