“Upcycled Bag” takes packaging from various luxury goods and transforms them into a modest reusable grocery bag. By promoting sustainability and resourcefulness, it becomes an object that is both aesthetic and practical. It has been lovingly hand-crafted from a global collection of food packaging and labels that encompass tea, coffee, beer, wine, pastries, biscuits, chocolate, rice and even a dish towel. This piece pays homage to over a dozen countries from Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Simply stated, food has the universal power to bridge divides and bring us together.
