Event Information
About this event
Creating with Plastic
Instructor: Bryan Northup
Using single-use plastics collected from our daily lives, participants will discover the possibilities and process of transforming “trash” into artwork worthy of your wall. Artist Bryan Northup, will offer demonstrations of techniques originated in his art practice and give individual guidance on creating a wall relief or small sculpture. Participants will also create a small component to add to a collaborative piece that will be sliced up and shared with participants at the end of class.
Since much of what is created with discarded plastics is dictated by the kinds of raw material collected, each student is encouraged to collect single use plastics (clean and dry) and bring them to class to work with and/or share (optional).
