INFECTING THE CITY
I found Infecting the city very interesting and inspiring. The whole idea behind it (using recyled goods to make art) is fantastic, i really enjoy the theme... However i found that some of the art there was too simple and did not have enought thought put into it. For rxample the rubbish collected from 40 homes... A brilliant idea to show us how much rubbish comes out of each household but the could have made it more interesting. Instead of just displaying the rubbish in a pile with a net over it... they could have made sculptures out of the rubbish to make it more creativ yet still get the message across.
If i had to make jewellery for infecting the city i would used recyled materials such as bottle caps, tins and the tabs you get off the top of coke tins. Kat, Gene and I actually did this last year for a business project. I will post some images for you to look at.
