Title: Strand
Description: British artist and designer Stuart Haygarth gathers discarded or overlooked objects and elevates them into art. He makes designs and installations out of common detritus and everyday waste. Yet his work is as much about the process of collecting and collating materials as it is the creation of value or beauty. For 'Strand' he walked the entire length of the English south coast, from Gravesend to Land's End, picking up hundreds of man-made items left washed up on the shore.
