Turning E-Waste into Art
- by MT Bureau
- January 30, 2025

A striking anamorphic sculpture, crafted from repurposed headlights, air conditioning units, chipboards and other discarded materials is helping to turn e-waste into an art. It is aiding to bring new meaning to sustainability and creativity.
A one-of-a-kind installation created by artists Rohini Maiti and Surya Punjabi in collaboration with Tata Motors’ Re.Wi.Re Recycling Facility, the striking anamorphic sculpture reflects the capability to transform e-waste into a powerful artistic statement.
Through ‘Behind A Silver Lining’, the artists have explored the intersection of art, science, and technology, giving new life in the process, to materials that would otherwise be discarded. The installation challenges the way we view industrial waste, encouraging audiences to see potential where others see obsolescence.
More than just an artwork, the sculpture sparks important conversations about sustainability, innovation, and responsible recycling. Paying tribute to the Kala Ghoda tradition of horse-inspired sculptures, it also reflects on the evolution of transportation and the role of design in shaping a sustainable future.
