TrashArt Museum Berlin (by Natalia Irina Roman)

The TrashArt Museum finds itself in a long yard full with yellow-doors-garages and was founded in 2008.

It is not just an yard, but an association, Kunst-Stoffe, focused on sustainability, waste avoidance and cultural development. Kunst-Stoffe runs workshops and an artist in residence program. The TrashArt museum itself is the initiative of an artist from Munich, Adler F.C., who was doing here at that time a art residency.

The yellow-doors-garages store a wide range of materials, saved from becoming trash, among which fabric, metal and wood. The materials are made available for cultural and educational purposes. “We are upcycling, redesigning, not recycling”, the friendly Doro, member of Kunst-Stoffe, told me. And indeed, they very much do so, some of the sculptural works I have seen there give a different meaning to every day objects.

Tip: The museum is open on Wednesdays and Fridays, but do not hesitate to call them if other days suite you better. The people from Kunst-Stoffe are friendly and open for meeting you or starting new collaborations.
