Unit 2 (As) - Recycling Project

This Corset and skirt was made in AS first year of college in the second unit- Recycling Project. In this Exam Unit, I looked at artists who use recycable material to create producations. I got the ideads of one artist Susan Stokwell who uses the world Maps to create exaggerated dresses I like the way paper had been used instead of material such as fabrics such as Cotton etc. I liked the usage of all materials such as card, paper, bottles, bottle tops, crisp packets. I explored alot in my Recycle Project porfolio and came up with a final piece such as coming up with the Newspaper skirt which I have lined underneth with white Cotton so the newspaper is properly covering the legs. The corset type was done by a recycled bra and white Cotton to make the corset. I put coffee and tea mixed on to the fabric stain so it fits in with the theme of Recycle and have stitched the bra and the fabric to gether to make it one whole.
