Proposal for live recycling project
Jack Fearn
Friday 17th December
This is a project about recycling and electrical items in landfills. The area of land taken for landfill sites is about 28,000 hectares, which is a lot and this is after everybody has already done there recycling. People just throw away their old electrical items without a moments thought, the Government is bringing in a scheme to stop this and to put electrical items in special bins near supermarkets so it is easy for people to recycle them. The aim of this project is to make the public aware of the effects of putting electrical items in landfills and also to promote the Governments scheme.
In this project I think I will do a range of mono prints, collograph or lino prints, I think that with these techniques I can get an earthy look to my work, which links to the live project. I will try different techniques to see if they work better but I think my final piece will be a mono print, collograph or a lino print. In week one I will research artists that specialise in contemporary art around the environment and recycling. Week two I will try some of the artists’ styles to see if they will work for the idea that I have. Week three I will try the rest of the artists’ work, by doing this I will build up my contextual studies book with artists’ research and my attempts of their work. For the rest of the weeks I will be looking through my work, deciding which style I will use and then create a poster for the final piece.
Another artist is Jane Perkins.
This poster was designed by a company called prospect. I like the use of one three colours and that the big digger and the actual landfill is like a stencil on top of the background.
These set of posters have been esigned by the one world design company. http://www.behance.net/Gallery/OneWorld-Campaign/166992
