Recuperatie-Reïntegratie

A video recording of photographs, made by Van den Boom, of disposable articles and packages that were recycled. The intention of recycling is to give new purposes to objects that were meant to be used only once. A male voice-over and steel drum music accompany the images. Recycling for non-artistic uses mostly takes place in the Third World and in the margins of Western cities. The garbage products are transformed into toys, music instruments and practical objects.
