This is an animated short video called, “The Power Broker” This In response to what should not happen with our batteries. One of the art students at Kean University discovered these batteries in the trash. Batteries need to be discarded in the proper way, there are many recycle locations to properly discard batteries, so that they don’t contaminate our water supply. This 3D project is a temporary one and the batteries will be disposed of properly. Check out the Life green batteries project site for more valuable information about the hazards of batteries.
Objective: Create a 3D sculpture using 1 to 2, 4 cup pulp board carrying trays
Don’t throw them away reuse them! Those Bio degradable pulp board items that are used in packaging have interesting forms. Companies like Enviropak think green and make environmentally friendly products from Bio degradable pulp board which is non bleached making it environmentally friendly. As artists we can think green also and make some creative 3D projects from some of these items. Your assignment is to reconfigure, from the 4 cup pulp board carrying tray, an interesting scuplture. So the next time someone asks you to get the coffees don’t throw out the trays, create something from them.
Materials: 1-2, 4 cup pulp board trays This project should take less than 5 hours.
Objective: Use found materials to create a 3D form
Look for interesting materials that can be combined into a dynamic sculptural forms. Artists have been recycling before it became popular.
Use everyday objects that have been used for another function. Now alter the use of the objects into a new visual context. The intent is to cause the viewer to see what you have made in a fresh new way.
Look at what Pablo Picasso did with sheet metal and wire in the work called the “Guitar” Below.
