Artful Trash Management


ATM: The Group collects trash from riverbanks and makes cubes. In their manifesto, they declare their intention to make art out of junk, instead of hiding it.



This is a piece by Christy Rupp, whose work touches themes of economics and globalization. She deliberately made her glasses "objectlike" to point to consumers' obsession with pretty things.



These are both possible routes I may go with my piece. It includes a lot of cigarette holders. I may either collect a lot of cigarette butts, or scratch the surface of the containers.
