Artist Talk: Natalya Khorover
ArtRage Gallery

Price: Free
ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

Natalya Khorover's practice stems from a need to create beauty from that which has been discarded. Striving to lessen plastic pollution and overconsumption drives her creativity. Zero waste is the ultimate goal for her practice. Natalya collects single-use plastic food packaging at home, cleans up trash on their walks, and transforms it in the studio.

Reclaiming and repurposing materials that often end up choking our environment or overflowing landfills has been art practice for years. She uses meditative hand stitching alongside an industrial sewing machine to stitch and collage layers of translucent single-use plastics that would otherwise contribute to litter pollution.
