Recycle. Reinvent

Patricia Urquiola designs The Recycled Woollen Island for the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne in the framework of the Triennial

2020-2021. The installation uses leftover materials and aims to find a new idea of beauty that starts from waste. It is built around the narrative of the spontaneous simple gesture of leaving socks on the floor as it happens perhaps in every household. These large-scale

socks are seating modules, enabling to create shared sitting areas that can be changed and adapted freely by the public itself.
