The Judith Wright Centre in Fortitude Valley is hosting an art
exhibition with each piece made from second hand shop and reused
everyday materials. There are 10 artworks on display. Here's a taste.

Created from a microphone stand, kitchen items, a foot pump, a beer keg, computer parts, toys and a wine glass holder.
Guiseppo Filardo - Trophy in Waiting |
Created from serving spoons, Christmas decorations, bar stools and a
chair, wine rack, music book stand, jugs, trolleys and more.
Holly Pepper - Thorn in the Reef |
Created from woollen rugs, coffee bags, knitting needles, second-hand nails, a Webber BBQ, metal lights and more.
Robert Hains - Pegasus |
Created from a bookcase, school desk, chair and lectern.
You are invited to vote for your favourite and the winning artist gets $4000. Which will support them handsomely while they are rummaging around in the tip looking for their next inspiration! So if you're in the area, pop in and check it out. It will make you see junk in a different light.
