Denver International Airport’s Latest Exhibit Creatively Remade: Upcycled Art and Design Showcases Materials Once Destined for the Waste Bin

DENVER – May 21, 2024 – Creativity meets sustainability in Denver International Airport’s (DEN) newest exhibition, Creatively Remade: Upcycled Art and Design, which features art, fashion, and functional objects designed to breathe new life into materials that would have otherwise been discarded. 

Creatively Remade: Upcycled Art and Design showcases art from innovative designers, artists, and organizations who embed sustainable practices in their work using materials destined for the waste bin. From recycled plastics to upcycled textiles, these talented makers are masters of transformation, turning found objects into unique sculptures, seat leather and end bolts of fabric into fashion statements and food wrappers into landscape collages.

Passengers will be able to see how strong the power of imagination and resourcefulness can be and how inspiration can be found in the most unexpected places.

Sustainability is a guiding principle of DEN’s Vision 100 strategic plan and this is just one of many ways DEN is bringing that to life via its robust art program. Travelers are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity to explore Creatively Remade, a one-of-a-kind exhibition spread across the DEN campus, and to discover the diverse array of mediums and techniques that are used to redefine materials often considered waste.

Creatively Remade is located in Ansbacher Hall (before A-Bridge security), Concourse B East between gates B60 and B62, on level three of Concourse C, and east and west baggage claim. This exhibition will be on view through October 2024.
