Describe your piece and your thoughts behind it.
My piece is made out of trash I had collected over numerous days. I wanted to make something different out of something that people consider as ¨gross¨.
Did it turn out how you first planned or did the idea change as you worked on it?
I wish it was easier for me to create the flower, but trash is not the easiest medium to work with. I planned to make some sort of ball out of trash, but I never went through with the idea.
What made you choose to do a piece like that?
I wanted to show beauty out of trashed items. Inside the rose, there´s bottle caps and different trash pieces all balled up and it´s wrapped around foil. Trash gets thrown away everyday in mass amounts. I wanted to create art out of a different medium than usual.
Does your piece have a deep meaning? If so, what is it? If not, what feeling does your work evoke?
Flowers are meant to be pretty. Flowers made out of trash may not seem pretty to many. I wanted to somehow create beauty out of used and thrown away items. Trash is a major problem in this world and I wanted to prevent some items from being thrown away and create a different-looking piece.
