Scraps is an exhibition of sculptural art and furniture by Made Studio, featuring pieces made primarily from marginal and discarded textile, metal and timber materials collected during the studio’s everyday making process. A natural evolution of last year’s debut, Offcuts, these reimagined designs give life to a patchwork of scrap materials.
