A collection of art entitled “Reclaimed Objects Sculptures” by Sayaka Kajita Ganz. She uses discarded plastic items from peoples’ homes, such as spoons, spatulas, clothing hangers, garden shovels and more.
Notes from the artist:
My working process is reminiscent of my experiences growing up in several different countries, of being disconnected from the place I was born. Then, I began searching for a new community where I truly belong. I find discarded objects from peoples’ houses and give them a second life, a new home. For my sculptures I use plastic utensils, toys and metal pieces among other things. I only select objects that have been used and discarded. The human history behind these objects gives them life in my eyes. My goal is for each object to transcend its origins by being integrated into an animal form that seems alive. This process of reclamation and regeneration is liberating to me as an artist.
