Upcycle, Uplift (Artist Workshop)

Kingsborough Art Museum 2001 Oriental Blvd., Brooklyn

Upcycle, Uplift proposes a utopian solution to the current housing crisis by developing a line of recycled clothing created in workshops and remodeled based on the needs of homeless people. The participatory project invites the public to engage in deep listening with homeless people, opening themselves up to the complex issues that drive people to the street beyond the stereotypical assumptions.
