New Again is an ARTSWorcester member exhibition exploring found materials and the notion of identity re-designation by transforming commonplace objects into works of art.  New Again challenges artists to appropriate natural, recycled, and found materials and place them within a new, exciting, and engaging context.  Artists will provide these objects with new meaning beyond their originally intended function and illustrate how perception can shift when the framework surrounding an everyday item is changed.
