Goals • To introduce students to the work of artists using recycled or found objects and materials • To explore the various reasons and ways artists in the exhibition, Recycled Art use recycled or found objects and materials • To explore the creative process of transforming a found object or recycled material into a work of art Objectives Students will be able to: • Identify recycled materials in a work of art • Discuss how recycled materials or found objects contribute to the narrative, or storytelling, element in an individual work • Discuss how recycled materials or found objects contribute to the formal elements of an individual work, i.e. shape, texture, color, etc. • Discuss the social and environmental aspects of recycled art Vocabulary:
Recycled art- At its heart, recycled art is about re-purposing and reusing materials. Found object Art-A found object is a natural or man-made object, or fragment of an object, that is found (or sometimes bought) by an artist and kept because of some intrinsic interest the artist sees in it; the artist uses it as art or as part of an art work. |

Leaving the bottom flat gently periscope the sides to create vessel that successfully stands on it's own and has a radial symmetrical balance.
Step 5 Varnish:
When the vase is arranged exactly as you like it, paint the inside and outside with clear glossy modge-podge which will act like a glue and give the vase a finished look.
