Graham Bergh
Resource Revival

Artist's Statement

The idea for Resource Revival sprung from my imagination in 1991 when I got a flat tire while biking to my recycling job. That inner tube became a cradle for my stereo speakers and after three years of tinkering with other ideas Resource Revival was born in 1994.

Now we collect tons of discarded bicycle parts every year from bike shops all over the United States. We clean them using mild detergents, sort them into more categories than you can possibly imagine, and craft them into the cool products you see on our website.

Every year we collect thousands (and thousands) of pounds of recycled bicycle parts like these wheel rims. We store them in racks, bins, boxes and barrels in another old building on the property.

Buying recycled products "closes the loop" and helps keep used parts out of landfills.


Graham loves bikes and what they stand for: playfulness, a good workout, smart design, and reducing carbon emissions.
