Sculptor Converts Hoarder Trash Into Art Treasure

Living with a hoarder can be hard, but it's hardest on the children who don’t know why their parents are hoarding, or how to get them to stop.

You wake up every day surrounded by trash and/or junk wondering “what the heck am I going to do with all this stuff?”, feeling helpless among the heaps.

Artist Stephanie Calvert grew up in a hoarder household, and she came up with a clever way to put that trash to use while working past the discomfort of having hoarder parents- she creates sculptures with their hoarded trash.

Stephanie’s Shame To Pride project is just as much about making great art out of recycled materials as it is about helping her move past the scars of childhood by turning the trash that made her life hell into something heavenly for the world to admire.
