Event Information

The word "kaleidoscope" is derived from the Ancient Greek καλός (kalos), "beautiful, beauty",εἶδος (eidos), "that which is seen: form, shape” and σκοπέω(skopeō), "to look to, to examine"= "observation of beautiful forms."

 

The word "Vcyclescope" is derived from my name Veron “V”, recycle “cycle” (“Vcycle” pronounces similar to “recycle” ) and kaleidoscope “scope” = kaleidoscope made by Veron with recycle materials.

 

Vcyclescope is  an upcycle photographic gadget handmade with waste: paper core of toilet roll, kitchen paper, cling film… It reduces waste from its source. Each kaleidoscope is unique with decoration by recycle materials (old newspaper, magazine, catalogue, leaflet, packaging ribbon…).Both its’ function and aesthetic quality are upgraded from its’ original value. The world seen through it is very different. Which became beautiful, surreal and amazing. Whatever you capture through it can become artistic pattern. Even though the dullest thing in your daily life can be turned into inspiring images. Life will never be boring with it!
