Sculpture Meets Upcycling
In this camp, we will practice thinking outside of the box by turning recycled materials into art. Each project will start with a limited number of supplies from the recycling center, and a prompt. For example, students could be given lightbulbs, wire, and duct tape, and asked to create “movement”. The artists will be challenged to see objects for their shapes rather than their functions. They will strengthen their creative brain by defining a single-word concept with simple, raw materials. Seeing the world for its possibilities is a problem-solving skill that is valuable in all aspects of life.This camp is for 10-14 yr olds.
