For this project your goal to take "junk" and transform it into something awesome. Though I personally question this artist's philosophy that drives her work, it is very beautiful. I think we can take the meaning in a different direction. I see taking what was once junk and transforming it into something beautiful as a metaphor for what can happen to our lives. When you look at this artists work look closely at the types of materials she uses and then find your own. Ask friends and family for their plastic cutlery, containers, old computer covers etc. Dive into a dumpster (SAFELY) if you have to. I've done it!! Your project will be marked on use of form, creative use of materials, how accurately your sculpture represents the subject, how your project and statement conveys the meaning of your work.
