Uncommon. "The photographs in this postcard book document the use of materials and objects in ways they weren't intended for, the second time around, by culture in both industrialized and developing nations. People often do not recycle consciously: instead they are absorbed with solving problems using the materials at hand. These images were selected from over 1,500 photos of recycled objects. Although many come from poor nations, economically speaking, the recycling coveys a wealth of ingenuity. It is the artist's hope that these pictures will inspire others to use resources wisely and creatively."--Inside cover pagePostcards in art. Recycling (Waste, etc.) -- In art.
