Susan Stockwell and her creations made entirely of recycled material

Susan Stockwell is an English artist that specializes in creating art installations utilizing only recyclable materials, treating different themes such as: ecology, geopolitics, global market and mapping.

All of those scraps of the western world become sculptures or collages thanks to her capable hands.

One of her most popular projects is called 'Maps' and is a series of maps and topographic reconstructions that aim to the artistic restitution of dips, mountains, rivers and lakes to create a representation of the world in oversize format and completely made of pieces of recycled computers.
Another one of her projects constitutes in the creation, in a statue form, of dresses made of maps, banknotes and other paper objects currently used in the modern world. For example, "Colonial Dress" is entirely made of maps of the British colonies from different centuries and appears in the shape of a magnificent dress in Victorian style.

Stockwell also realized another dress utilizing only banknotes, intended as social critique.

Every detail is taken care of and combines the perfect finishing of a sartorial dress with the consistency of a work of art.
Stockwell studied at the Royal College of Art in London and exhibited her work all around the world, going from New York to Beijing.
