(re)cycle green(er)

(re)cycle green(er) is a progressive storefront installation exemplifying the ecology and logistics of six bicycle builders. Functional art is achieved through a collage of components, once donated or disposed, then reconstructed and reassembled by local (re)cyclists. Second-hand frames become the canvas for the hyperbolic extensions of cycling green. Through the process of reduction and renewal, each bicycle is resurrected as an icon of self-expression.
