Sidney Bell

Sidney Bell is an innovative creator and the driving force behind 1/1 Containment, a unique project that transforms discarded electronics and cigar boxes into extraordinary, one-of-a-kind pieces of functional art. As the current artist in residence at The Makery, Sidney brings their vision to life by blending sustainability with creativity, giving new purpose to forgotten materials.

Sidney’s work explores the intersection of form and function, creating art that isn’t just meant to be admired but also interacted with. Each piece is meticulously crafted, telling a story of renewal and ingenuity while pushing the boundaries of what art can be.
