today's rubbish, tomorrow's resource
Saturday, May 31, 2008,4:30 PM
a post in response to green-tags.
recycling is today's design revolution, when waste is seen as a resource. three artists for inspiration.1.
madeleine boulesteix, teacup chandeliers.
can you see the cups? ;)
elegant and pretty. you probably won't even realise they're made from recycled materials that no one wants anymore.
2.
Joe Pogan- scrap metal sculpturesI create animal sculptures using various "found metal" objects like old watches, sprockets, nuts and bolts. The stranger the piece of metal the better, since the end goal is an eye-catching, fascinating amalgamation of metal with odd nooks and crannies you can explore for hours.
3.
Clare Graham- recycled material art. Clare creates art. Recently “Recycled Art” or art made from discarded materials. Take a look but try to think of something to say besides “Oh my Gawd” – or his favorite; “Why would someone do that?”.
Soda Cans
Bottle Caps
made entirely out of buttons.
i hope this has inspired you to think
green too. Who knows, you could create some fantastical art with the rubbish lying around in your house? ;)
