Re-purposed materials make lovely & creative art pieces as there is no limit
to what forms they can take upon their rebirth --from trash into
treasure. Am fondly known as the Dumpster Diva!
In fact, many in my vast network prefer to call me for pick up or
delivery of "junk" items--they wish to merely dump them, but
knowing my passion for many atypical "art" materials, their
conscience is cleared understanding that I will give their unwanted
things a new home & new life as art!
I use my
"found" or gifted objects "as is"--no cutting,
altering or revising, so the only tools I require are to fasten
the objects to their frame or base--also, generally, a found
object. Wood & metal are my materials of choice, being that
they occur from nature, but knowing how much plastic & synthetic
material is dumped into landfills & how its decomposition is very
slow, I will sometimes choose a man-made object to contrast with
the Earth's medium, wood & metal.
