I love casting a Spotlight on the recyclable materials we reuse at the studio. I believe that by reusing everyday items as art materials, we unlock our creativity and support our planet, lessening waste and expanding creative possibilities.
Through my Spotlights I hope to build curiosity, and awareness of the earth-to-trash journey of the everyday items used in our community and, creating an investment in their reuse through creativity and mindfulness.
This month I feature Natural Things in some of their various forms, all around us, everyday.
I’ll share snippets of curiosity like; how this materials inspires me, how it gets-reused, and how and more. I explore what artists make with this materials, where it comes from, as well as their impact post- consumer on our planet.
