About Foundling Arts Revival

What happens when a junkyard alchemist facilitator extraordinaire and a punk chaos goblin with an art degree become friends and decide to showcase their varied creative talents and skills? FoundlingArts Revival is born! 

What started as a passion for bargain hunting (i.e. shopping addiction) has turned into a mission to rescue, revive, and rehome forgotten finds, oddball orphans and random relics that would otherwise end up in a landfill, or on the dusty bottom shelf of a thrift store. 

We do unique upcycles, junkyard alchemy, original art and sculpting by taking whatever items, “foundlings” if you will, that strike our fancy, and turning them into unique works of art. 

What strikes our fancy, you ask? *That* is a constantly evolving variety of unexpected that honestly changes with the weather/our moods, or how our socks feel on the meat suits on any given day.

Working intuitively with no real map we let the individual pieces dictate what shape they take. The results are sometimes surprising and darkly whimsical; sometimes socially and spiritually conscious, gently macabre, quaintly eccentric, or cutely offbeat, with a hearty side of witchy shit and good intentions infusing everything we do. 

We are always interested in stones, crystals, skulls and bones, fancy frames and fabrics, pop culture, the animal kingdom (#don’tshopadopt), female empowerment, witchy spiritual shit, baroque, nouveau, and victorian inspiration, music and car culture, oddities, and misfits. 

We have a brick and mortar space in Portland, Oregon, but are glad to ship almost anywhere.
