Learn to recycle plastics into art works
Learn to recycle plastics into art works
This course will teach you to create art using recycled plastics. You will learn a novel technique that requires no additional colours or glues. Just 100% recycled plastics.
Learn the technique of plastic working and get introduced to creative ways to turn single use plastics into long lasting plastic art.
This course uses a combination of mainly video explanations and some animated illustrations. It includes a lot of practical demonstration of each technique introduced. You will also learn more than one approach to producing the same product giving you more options you can adapt to the tools you have available. You will be able to follow along the production process and together over the duration of the course we would have converted these used plastics into different objects and in the process learn the unique craft of 'painting' with plastics and plastic working.
The course starts off with the first part about plastics, an overview of recycling, and a review of the plastic challenge and role of consumers and producers in plastic waste management and how this can be improved.
The course then moves on to the more practical aspects of plastic working and creating artwork with plastics.
Many if not all of us make use of plastics in our everyday life and about half of the plastics we use are not used for longer than a few days, minutes, or even seconds. We tend to throw away a lot of the plastics we use, many of which are single-use plastics. Some because even when they are recyclable the facilities to recycle are inaccessible and some of the single-use plastics even when recyclable cannot be recycled on a large scale.
A lot of the plastics which get thrown away still have a lot of "life" or so to speak in them and can still be used for much longer, up to multiple years in other forms. In this course, I'll be teaching you how to convert those plastics you would normally throw away into valuable works of art and other long-lasting useful objects. Even better is the fact that we will be doing this using relatively simple tools and access equipment. So this is a project you can do using things you either already have at home or in your workshop or can easily purchase locally.
