This further website has some unusual ideas and methodologies for using unexpected mediums and materials.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Different art mediums open up a host of possibilities. Beyond classical painting and sculpture, today's avant-garde artists often experiment with unexpected materials and unconventional methods of creating. In fact, across all genres of art, you will find artists who are able to transform ordinary works into pieces that are unbelievably extraordinary. Here, we showcase the unusual mediums used by some of today's top creatives.

From Yuken Teruya-who delicately carves commercial paper bags and transforms them into magnificent miniature trees-to Maurizio Savini, who turns Hubba Bubba into high art, these selected artists are the ones who remind us that the best kind of art isn't always the most complicated; it's the kind that leaves us with an experience.

Explore these innovative mediums of art and get your creative juices flowing.

Tips

1. The first paragraph should be a general introduction to what you're reviewing. Include the title, artist, and an interesting fact about its success or how it was made.

2. The main body of the review needs detailed observations. Use specific vocabulary (e.g. lyrics, fast-paced, catchy melodies) to comment on particular songs and parts of the music.

3. It is also important to give context. Link the music to the artist's life, or what inspired them, and the political or social context of the album.

4. Try to make the review interesting and relevant to the reader. You can relate the artist's work to real-life experience (yours or that of people in general).

5. Use compound adjectives (e.g. fast-paced, foot-tapping, best-selling) to make your writing highly descriptive.

6. Finish off with a summary of why this album/concert, etc. is important.
