When I was given the theme to create something out of, I went out to investigate a village and found that most of the shops sold miscellaneous goods. Big advertisements will be posted at the door to attract customers, with words such as big price reduction, discount . After seeing the excessive use of advertising paper, I felt it was a little wasteful!so I wanted to make some works of art around the core of environmental protection to alert those who see the works to cherish resources.
After thinking about several schemes, I didn’t feel very satisfied. When I Having discussed with the teacher, I decided to use only corn leaves to make this part of work instead of paper. After trying to soak the corn leaves in water-based pigment, I found it was not ideal. then I tried using a hot glue gun with colored glue sticks to glue them together. Unexpectedly, the outcome was successful, and I felt accomplished! it’s like the sense of watching pollutants spill out”. the pieces of work I finally made include a 50 * 50 neck ornament, a 30 * 20 leg ornament and a pair of 15 * 30 hand ornaments.
