VAHO GALLERY
TRASHION BAGS
When the time has come to say goodbye,
just before saying our farewells,
the objects and materials we throw away give out a sigh, hoping to be saved. They all deserve a second chance
to be transformed and show their new
use to the world that rejected them. For their dream to come true,
they need to escape the fate
of their own lifecycle. It is part of our job to bring materials
back to life and to hunt for lost treasures
among the waste that progress
and modernity generate. The PVC advertising banners
are our raw material of choice,
and are taken to our workshop
to start a new life. The fairytale starts as the events come to an end. They come to us in poor condition ,
wrinkled, dirty and sad, but this is where their resurrection begins. Vaho transforms their personality to
convert them into bags. We manipulate their shape and
imagine their individual character. The material's lifecycle is thus extended.
