How do artists design something new from something old? What benefits are there in creating from recycled or found materials?
For this challenge, while we are away during this Distance Learning time, I would like you to try and create a piece of Found Object Jewelry. This could be a necklace or bracelet. Use the provided template to plan your design. Get creative on what you can use from around the house / garage. Naturally do not use unsafe or hazardous materials. Read labels and know what you are working with. Ask your parents about your chosen materials before you begin construction, or contact me with a list of your materials. With what ever means necessary and at your exposure, connect, construct and design a unique wearable piece of Avant Garde Jewelry Art.
