The biennial Salvaged Art Exhibition is a competition managed by Kingborough Council.
Entries are now closed. We asked entrants to create an artwork from recycled, repurposed and reused materials.
In 2023, Salvaged Art will carry the theme of Health & Wellbeing in Kingborough.
We asked, through your artwork, to let us know what makes you feel joy, gratitude, hope, a sense of belonging or purpose and/or a connection to nature.
