In linguistics, reappropriation, reclamation, or resignification [1] is the cultural process by which a group reclaims words or artifacts that were previously used in a way disparaging of that group. It is a specific form of a semantic change (i.e., change in a word's meaning).
This art form primarily focuses on the experiences of those who are working class, lower income and identify as Mexican or Chicano. The blending of different mediums or repurposing of objects allows the art form to be accessible, allowing the genre to cross boundaries between repurposing art and fine art, which makes "rasquachismo" unique.
A good example of this would be the Earthship style of house, that uses tires as insulating walls and bottles as glass walls. Reuse is not limited to repeated uses for the same purpose. Examples of repurposing include using tires as boat fenders and steel drums or plastic drums as feeding troughs and/or composting bins.
