ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: MARI EOSCO is an upcycle artist . Her passion is to highlight the earth’s need for less human consumption by repurposing others waste into unique, functional pieces! She makes handbags from leftover found fabrics, billboard signs, belts, firefighter jackets, sailboat sails, you name it! She also makes door mats from upcycled snowmaking hoses and coin purses from old turf! Her pieces are sometimes whimsical in nature, always creative and have a story behind them!
What Mari says about her work, “My goal is simple; to encourage people to think about trash. To realize it does not just magically go away. If I can get a few people thinking by creating things out of what-would-be-trash, mission accomplished. If people change a habit here or there; bonus! And if someone is inspired to take it further, that would be icing on the cake!!!!! (which is compostable)”
