I went to the store and bought pencil toppers, glue, and jelly beans, Once I got my supplies I got a piece of wood that was shaped like cactus. Once I got my supplies I went straight to it, at first I wanted to make it just green and yellow but I didn't have enough of those colors to fill the whole thing but I made the best out of it. I wanted to go with a kind of happy art piece that why I involved a bunch of color. My mom was my influence and she helped me plan my project.
I don't think it refers to the artist we've studied.

3- you can turn trash to treasure,I learned about the artist, you can use anything
2- the colors, what you can make out of recycled things
1- nothing

# data[].attributes.body
Things I learned:
1)I learned what arranged sustainable art is.
2)I learned how I could make this type of art.
3)I also learned some of the artists that create this type of art.
Things I found interesting:
1)You can really make this type of art out of anything.
2) It is really interesting how you can take "trash" and make it really beautiful.
Question I still have:
Is this type of art difficult to do because of how much freedom you have with it.

# data[].attributes.body
- I learned what sustainable art is, why it exists, and how to make it myself.
- I found it interesting that people throughout the world decide to spread this message because we all experience similar problems. I also found the creativity that these people have inspiring.
- Will we be doing a non written project on this as well?

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that pollution and overconsumption impacts the whole world.
I learned that sustainable art refers to art using recycled materials.
I learned that there are many different styles of sustainable art.
I found it interesting the sustainable art is often used as a call to action.
I found it interesting that most of the sustainable artists mentioned were photographers.
A question is still have is can both 3D and 2D art be made using trash?

# data[].attributes.body
- something may be a piece of trash, but if you work on it you can make it something interesting
- cardboard is a viable material to use for this project
- it's the detail that counts

# data[].attributes.body
3 Things I learned
1)I learned how recycled things for art can be pretty nice
2)The art that inspired people
3) You can make anything with recycled materials
What I fount interesting
1)There is plenty different types of styles
2) How many artist were inspired
Question
Ion got one

# data[].attributes.body
Things I learned:
1. the impact of sustainable art
2. what materials can be used to create sustainable art
3. the inspiration behind sustainable art

Things I found interesting:
1. Aida Soluva´s art
2. I think it is very interesting that you can turn almost anything into art as long as you assemble it well.

Question:
If there were more sustainable art out there, how would it impact the planet?

Artist Response:

I would describe Aida Sulova´s art as unique and impactful. I consider her work unique because you do not see a face on the side of a garbage can everyday. While her work stands out, it also spreads awareness about waste, specifically plastic, and how it impacts the planet.

After admiring her art, Aida Sulova´s work makes me feel inspired because it reminds me of how we mistreat our environment, which gives me the feeling I should take steps to help out the Earth.

I definitely think Aida´s art is successful because her mission is to bring attention to the large amount of waste humans create and I certainly noticed how much trash is in her art. Not only does Aida seek to spread awareness, she also wants her viewers to create change after seeing her work. Looking at her photos evoked a sense of duty in me that I have to help the planet, which means her message reached me.

While I do not have many critiques for her work, I would say the mouth on the trash can is not obviously a mouth. Perhaps she could change the colors on the face so it stand out more.

Overall, I think Aida´s art can make a huge difference in how people see garbage and I really admire her.

-How would you describe this artist’s work?

Aida Sulova’s work “Once Upon a Plastic Bag” is a piece that is trying to bring awareness to how  much we use and dispose of plastic and trash.

-What is your emotional response to this artist’s work?

I didn’t exactly have a huge emotional wow when looking at the art that was on the dumpster, but the pictures of animals eating garbage is always difficult to look at. They don’t know any better and it’s sad how much those problems happen.

-Do you think this work is successful according to the artist’s purpose?

I definitely think that the artists motive and purpose for making this art is a good cause, and by making this art, it would have people think harder about what they are purchasing and throwing out. So yes, I think this work is successful to the purpose.

-What critiques do you have for this artist’s work?

My first glance at the picture I just thought plastic was flowing into a plastic bag, but I didn’t look very closely. After reading the section left of it I understood what it was. Until then, I didn’t though.

-What other comments do you have about this artist or their work?

I found it interesting how the garbage was the colored part of the art while the person and the backdrop weren’t. It drew my eye to the plastic first, and I think that is the point.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Anything can be art
2. Sustainable art is art made out of materials/ "waste"
3. A lot of artists out there use recycled materials as mentioned in #2
2 things I found Interesting
1. You could use things like staples or even paper towels to create art
2. This art style is more common than I thought
1 question I still have
1. Where is this art displayed? Like do artists just photograph it and have their piece lying around, or since it is sustainably made could they just recycle it?

# data[].attributes.body
- what materials would you find unacceptable to be used?

1) Does it have to send a message?

These snowflakes were designs by Marion Nichols, or the "Snowflake Lady" at the City Museum in St. Louis.

I created them out of papers that were in the recycling, I cut them to the right margins, folded them, and cut the pattern. I suppose I'm trying to say, that a project doesn't have to be huge for it to still be beautiful. It doesn't have to be made of brand new materials either.

I made these out of recycled paper, so that is telling my artist what I described above.

Using paper that would have been taken the next time the recycling would have been taken connects to the unit's big idea since it is all about using "trash" to make art.

When I was younger, my dad would take me to the City Museum in St. Louis, and one of my favorite things to do there would be to go to the "Snowflake Lady" on the second floor and make a paper snowflake while she told us stories. We bought a couple books of her designs and I used that influence to make my snowflakes.

The artists we looked at were all about using what was already existing, using trash, making a point. I think that by using paper that would've been recycled supports what the artists were trying to say.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe this artist’s work as bright, yet dark, and contrasting. Both in the artwork and in its message. My favorite of his “Washed Up” works is the photograph with orange and reds contrasting the deep greens and blues of the ocean. It does look like sunset; but at the same time it’s sad that we are able to take these photos. The items are not where they belong. His image “Brotes” of toothbrushes among plants is heartbreaking. The brushes are similar in shape and size to the cattails. This reminds me of instances in which animals and sealife mistake our trash for their food. Alejandro is taking the role of these nonhuman creatures’ voice. They can’t speak up about what humans are doing. Alejandro’s work is a reminder that this is not only our planet. The way that people treat this Earth is disgusting and selfish. I think the imagery he portrays can be seen as beautiful or as crude. This work can be successful but only if the artist is actively cleaning up waste. Taking photographs may spread a ¨message¨ but the real problem is still there; the garbage plaguing nature. I would encourage artists who advocate for a greener Earth to work towards cleaning up what they are photographing more than they are.

Each artist shows an example of each art technique we can do. With Alejandro he's showing us art work that's physically there. It's made up of things people see in a daily. I'd say that Alejandro's work very different and defines things in may ways. Not only does he use color but he uses may different shades of color. His work isn't hard at all.

I am doing El Anatsu as my artist

1. How would you describe this artist’s work?

His art is really cool i think because it uses the smallest of things to create beauty. The colors in all of his artworks are warm instead of using blues and greens or cold colors. He also seems to not just change colors quickly but kind of subtly starts the change in some of his pieces. I like the materials he uses like the copper wires, the wood, or the aluminum bottle caps.

1. -What is your emotional response to this artist’s work?

I feel as if this artwork is really warm with all the oranges and yellows and browns and I like the way they are all presented together. My favorite is the stressed world because of the varying colors but also the parts that you can see through, it feels a little bit like an absence.

1. -Do you think this work is successful according to the artist’s purpose?

Yes I feel like he meant to try and convey both the feelings f comfort in the colors but then leave spaces open. It is kind of represented in the title Stressed World that this is the feeling that El Antsu was hoping to invoke in anyone who looked at the piece for a little bit.

1. -What critiques do you have for this artist’s work?

I don't think I have any right to critique his work because what I may see as a flaw may be what the artist wanted

1. -What other comments do you have about this artist or their work?

I don't have any comments.

# data[].attributes.body
Every artists style is different, showing us approaches we can take. Aida Solva shows us that art is so much more than a painting or a sculpture or anything else. It can connect people around the world, bring awareness to important topics and even give a wider audience to certain matters. I have learned through her that art education matters a lot.

Alejandro Duran “uses his art to connect with the world around him and influence his viewers to see the waste in a new way. He contorts his installations to look like rivers, shorelines, trees, animals and more to make an even more impacting and everlasting statement to his spectators. In hopes his audiences will make the necessary changes to help the environment around them.”

My emotional response to his work is positive as he is so passionate about his work, and hoping to make a change in the world by inspiring others. I believe this work is successful according to the artist’s purpose, as for one thing i’m sitting reading an article about Duran and his art night now! Besides that, the purpose to his art is genuine and will for sure make an impact on the world. I do not have any critiques for this artist’s work. I really enjoy Alejandro Duran’s art and creativity! Sustainable art doesn’t seem to be very common, but I quite enjoy his pieces and the intentions behind them.

El Anatsui - This artist's work is very unique and cool as well and he uses carved or flame-burned wooden sculptures and cut lines and symbols in them with color, the symbols also resembled Uli. My emotional response is that this is very cool to see someone trying to revive the craft and traditions of African nations mostly from Ghana and Nigeria. I think this work is very successful as he's trying to revere the traditions of these two nations as they were both nations that struggled for their independence. A critique I have for this artist's work is that he will make different types of structures using different materials other than his wood sculptures and metal sculptures. I think this artist is making great art for Ghana and Nigeria and very much appreciates his work.

Artist Response

I would describe Aida Sulova´s art as interesting and fun to make. I find her work interesting because you do not see a face on the side of a garbage can everyday. Sulova’s art stands out of the rest of the art pieces, because she is using materials that you wouldn't usually use to make art. In conclusion, I think Aida´s art can make a difference in the art world by using trash to make art.

1. A blanket that was made with extra string.  The pattern is a rainbow.
2. I was trying to do something unique that I not turned in any of my classes.
3. The plan was to design something simple but cool looking.
4. My statement was make something that is renewable or turn it into something else.
5. I was influenced by a hat I made a few years ago.

2. I'm not really trying to make a statement with this piece, I'm mostly trying to be aesthetically pleasing.
3. Again, I didn't really try to make a statement but I used contrasting colors, alternated the direction of the objects to the side of the book, and had them go from biggest to smallest to make it look nice.
4. The piece is made with found objects that I already had.
5. My main influence was Emily Blincoe.
6. I liked how Emily Blincoe worked with color and wanted to do something similar.

1. Describe your work as if you were describing it to a person in another room.
The piece(s) are bat wings cut from old cardboard and colored black. They are tied to hair clips using thread.

2. What is the artistic statement that you are trying to make with your work?
The statement I wanted to make is that many of the items we dispose of can be used and enjoyed. Not only art but also clothing/accessories!

3. How did you use design elements, materials, and composition to make this statement to the audience?
Most people wouldn't think of trash had the capability to be something so cute. Used items are looked on as "gross" or unable to be repurposed. I made something wearable and nice looking to prove this wrong.

4. How does your statement connect to the unit’s big ideas?
I took the unit's idea of turning trash into art a step further with creating items that are functional, not decorative.

5. What were your influences when making the work?
My greatest influence was upcyclers, people who take old things and make clothes, jewelry, etc. I think it's so cool that some people have the skills to turn a blanket into pants or fabric scraps into a stuffed animal. I've always wanted to do creative work like this.

here is an example:
f.6x2 shop

6. How does your work reflect the work of the artists we studied?

I think my work is different than that of the artists we studied. We are all trying to reduce waste but the end product is different. I think it's great that there are so many varying ways to create sustainable art.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The main piece was a glass bottle. Resting on the rim of the bottle was a rose cut from cardboard pieces swirling around each other. Halfway down the bottle was a circle of spiky petals that curved up and outward.

2. I wasn't trying to make a statement and just wanted to do the project

3. There was no statement represented in any of the elements or material I used

4. I didn't know there were big ideas to be represented

5. I was influenced by the materials around me and the example piece of a flower made out of cardboard which I thought looked neat.

6. It is made out of things that I would never think could be used to make art outside of arts and rafts that we did in elementary school with the similar idea of not wasting needless things and reusing what can be reused.

1. Describe your work as if you were describing it to a person in another room.

I would describe my work as a colorful arrangement of buttons from smallest to largest in a wavy, cyclone shape.

1. What is the artistic statement you were trying to make with your work?

With my work, I was attempting to show how things of different shapes, sizes, and colors can connect seamlessly.

1. How did you use design elements, materials, and composition to make this statement to the audience?

I used many buttons that varied in terms of size and color to convey a message of diversity. I also created a wavy shape to demonstrate the connection between the buttons.

1. How does your statement connect to the unit´s big ideas?

My statement connects to this unit´s theme -- that you can turn any materials you may have into art because I was able to bring random buttons I had lying around into one cohesive piece.

1. What were your influences when making the work?

When making my work, I was influenced by cyclones and rainbows because I wanted to mimic something with many waves, so a tornado shape came to mind. I considered rainbows as well because they contain many different colors that come together nicely.

1. How does your work reflect the work of the artists we studied?

My work most reflects Alejandro Duran, who also uses lots of colors. I kept his usage of color as well as how he arranges/spreads out the colors he uses in mind.

This piece is made out of old t-shirts that could also be recycled to use as cleaning rags. I cut the shirt into rectangular strips and rounded out one edge to make it appear like a petal, then arranged them in a circle to look like a flower. The artistic statement I am making with this is that almost anything can be art, it doesn't have to be with paper and pencil, but could even be an old t-shirt! I was able to make this statement to the audience simply by using the t-shirts as my material of choice. My statement connects to the units big ideas as it is being resourceful of items I already had at home, creating sustainable art!! My influences while making the art was my pile of old clothes that I initially had for sewing to make into new clothes I could wear more often, or stuff that needed to be hemmed or fixed. My work reflects the work of the artists we studied, as all of them have one thing in common which is creating art out of what we can, without creating waste.

1. I found a box of old screws in my garage, so I arranged them in a flower/sun shape and took pictures of it from various angles.
2. The statement I'm trying to make with my work is that you can create art out of anything and give old or worn things new life through art.
3. I used screws I found in my garage. I sorted them by size and the kind/shape/color they were, and then I arranged them and put a certain amount of space and placement between each one.
4. My statement is similar to some of the others, as I'm trying to show how old things can be given new life and be made into something beautiful.
5. My influences when making this art was the teacher examples that used found objects and arranged them in certain ways, as well as Alejandro Duran and Aida Sulova’s artwork.
6. My work reflects the work of the artists we studied because our artist statement's are similar and I used found objects to create art, just like they did.

1. It's a jar of paper/cardboard flowers with sticks used as stems and at the bottom of the jar there's juts some buttons.
2. I'm not really trying to make any sort of statement.... I was just doing my assignment haha.
3. ...they're just flowers.
4. I have no statement so...
5. Nature was my influence.
6. uh... it's partly made of cardboard and paper so I guess it reflects their work in that way?

1. My art piece is a wreath made out of sticks, flowers, and leaves from a  tree
2. What this piece is saying is that art is everywhere and can be made with anything. You don't have to be good at art to make good art
3. I used materials that you can find anywhere you go outside. I arranged them in a simple way to show that art can be anything.
4. The idea of this unit was to take trash or things we find in nature and turn it into art. I took things I had found in nature and turned it into something you can decorate your house with
5. My influence was those mirrors that are small circles with rods sticking out from every angle
6. I think my art is similar to the artists we studied in the way that we turned everyday things into art.

Aida Sulova

Her work is amazing to me. It's very beautiful and I love how it calls attention to real world issues that need to be addressed. I was really moved by her art and I was surprised at the amount of plastic actually there. I think it really brings to light, how much plastic we waste and how much of it ends up contaminating the world. I think her work is very successful in conveying her message. It really shows the magnitude of the issues in the world. I think using color in her art would actually grab more people attention and more people would see her message. I absolutely love how she incorporates herself into her artworks.

1. This art piece is something I thought of while eating a jellybean and thinking of spring bloom.
2. Little things can make such a beautiful difference, it starts off as a seed them blooms into so much more.
3. I was able to talk about my reasoning as to why I made a jellybean flower, which helped me with mom statement.
4. I created something out of a normal item around me.
5. see the brighter things, most start off small but then grow.
6. who I chose did art like mine with random items but put color with them and made them pop.

•I would describe this artist work by beautiful
when it is near the ocean.
• The emotion is rewarding view when you come to the ocean.
• using things that have washed up on the shore to create something nice.
• things found near the shore lines.
• don't have any other comments.

In the process of trying to get something good for this project, i did so many and failed but this one turned out the best, making a rainbow with fruit loops. My materials were old fruit loops cereal and i designed it by first organizing the fruit loops by color. This uses a old box of cereal that would have been to waste. My influence on this project was to find what would work best and look best. My art is like the other artist because it is very unique in cool in a way.
