SCRAP FORUM RECOMMENDATION


SCRAP FORUM RECOMMENDATIONS
I was trying to be experimental and adventurous in this artwork. The idea behind the artwork was the creative transformation of trash, and the possibilities of finding harmony in seeming chaotic and purposeless wastes. I believe that every litter has the potential of adopting a new shade of meaning if approached creatively. The fact is that these items ‘speak’ to us, that is, they crave to initiate a dialogue with our imagination. Succumbing and nurturing the significant habit of listening can yield very powerful and functionally relevant works that the environment and the society can benefit from. I am also exposing an aspect of the creativity that was involved in sequences that birthed the assemblage itself, that continuous movement that occurred right from when purchasing of the packets or wrappers industrial goods and its consumption by the end user, to its being left to litter our surroundings and finally to when it is picked up by the artist, who takes it to his studio and worked on it, giving it a new meaning. There is also the possible danger of the public discarding it again, thereby stimulating an indifferent attitude towards our environment, after viewing it with mixed responses especially when it does not make any impact on them. I am using this work to create awareness and stimulate the public to pay attention to the issue of recycling from waste

After seeing an close pal going trough a difficult moment due to a illness caused through using cigarettes I made it my quest to rescue as many other people as possible from the same fate, but soon I realized that regardless of how good your arguments are it is actually almost impossible to make a smoker quit smoking, not because the arguments aren't sufficiently good and not because the smoker isn't happy to stop but merely because smoking is really a more addictive drug than heroin and cocaine (scientifically proven).

Next , I learned that there is actually a way to stop smoking without giving up smoking, so leave the smoker his / her pleasure as well as habit but save him from the harmful effects of smoking cigarettes.

What I am speaking about are electric cigarettes. You can read about most of the negative effects connected with smoking cigarettes and the way a [url=http://electroniccigarette0.com/]electronic cigarette[/url] can help you quite cigarettes or just permit you to follow your routine and get your kick without the damaging negative effects of smoking on my webpage http://electroniccigarette0.com

P.S. I really hope this will not be erased because of having a link to my web site as I merely attempt to inform and help.
