Portfolio > To Use, To Reuse

To Use, To Reuse is an exhibition of new work by Knoxville based artist Kayla Miller. Kayla is exploring how to reuse materials in ways that will give them more than one meaning, more than one function, and more than one life. She strives to bring awareness to the materials that we use, consume or bring into our home. These are materials that are manufactured to have a one time use, materials that often get thrown away without even a second thought as to what other use one could give them.
