dc.description.abstractUpcycling, an artistic practice that involves transforming waste materials into new and valuable art pieces, has gained significant attention in recent years. It not only promotes sustainability by reducing waste but also provides artists with a unique medium to express their creativity. However, understanding the artist's intended intrinsic value (AIIV) in these upcycled artworks is essential to comprehend the underlying messages and meanings embedded within them. This article aims to investigate the concept of the artist's intended intrinsic value (AIIV) in the context of upcycled artworks created from waste materials, focusing on Nigerian-selected artists. The study explores how these artists perceive and communicate the intrinsic value of the upcycled artworks, considering factors such as the quality of materials used, the artist's intended aesthetic appeal, historical narrative, durability, and the artist's intent to improve environmental sanity through upcycling. In order to achieve this, a mixed method of quantitative and qualitative research approach was used employing questionnaires, in-depth interviews, direct observations, and document analysis was utilized. The findings reveal the diverse perspectives and artistic motivations that drive Nigerian artists to upcycle waste materials into meaningful pieces of art, thereby enriching the understanding of AIIV in the field of upcycled art.
