Wear Recyle comes to Chicago in the form of hand printed silkscreen posters designed by Catherine Savello and produced by Nicky Watts Studios. Nicky Watts is the producer, sculptor, photographer and researcher for the international project. The posters have been designed based on the final photographs of individuals paired with a sculpture made out of recycled paper. Watts studies the interactions and relationships between the participants involved in the project in order to explore the fragility of interpersonal relationships and draw a correlation between this and the process of working with recycled paper to create a sculpture. The sculpture is inspired by the cast of a body part of that individual and the actual intimate experience of the casting. Wear Recycle will be visiting other countries once it leaves Chicago and will finish with the publication of a book on the entire experience of work relationships through the process and implementation of an artistic vision.
