Earth Day is a very special day specifically designed for all of us to think about our planet’s issues. It is not only a special day in the town where we live, but a day that the whole world participates in! Let’s celebrate it together with eco-art and sustainable design!

The unique wall-hanging sculptures, eco art and sustainable design made entirely from recycled wood, were designed and created to inspire the audience to see things in a different way and to share a positive message on how we can reuse and recycle in creative way.  Recycling is the future, our mother Earth has limited resources and we have to learn how to REuse, REcycle and Reduce our materials and products consumption in order to decrease our footprint.

I do some ‘non-traditional art’, made from recycled wood that has been abandoned by industries.  There is a great pleasure in giving the wood a second life. In my belief, wood retains the spirit of the living tree and I just try to honour it. Much of my inspiration comes from the wood itself. Collecting wood simply for its natural beauty is the start of many of my works.  Old wood has scratches, cracks, knots and other imperfections that are similar to real life. Every piece of wood is like a person, with its unique character, challenges and strengths.

My name is Olga Oreshyna and I would like to introduce myself as a Canadian emerging artist who is deeply passionate about woodworking. The source of my inspiration comes from abandoned pieces of wood. In my imagination I give them a second chance of the life. All wood for my works were already used before. I hope this is my small contribution to green building. Rather than cutting down trees to get the needed material, reusing wood is just as good if not better. This is my way of making a difference, at the same time I’m sharing a positive message on how we can recycle and reuse in creative ways. My artworks reflect my contribution to make our fragile environment more healthy and beautiful. So much plastic, metal, concrete surround us in our everyday life. Creating these amazing wooden structures I feel huge energy coming over my hands.
