For our public art piece, we chose to illustrate the benefits to society and sustainability that comes with recycling. We used Coke and Mountain Dew cans to create roses (in the best way that we could) to comment on how recycling even the simplest of items can benefit society by ensuring the our resources are used to their fullest potential. The inside of the stem is a light stake, which helped us to be able to stick the flowers firmly in the ground. We cut up the cans in different shapes to create the stems and petals and used a hot glue gun to keep the roses together.
This piece doesn’t just discuss the recycling of aluminum cans. We intend it to help start a discussion of the beneficial results of recycling all types of materials, whether they be aluminum, plastic, glass, metal, or even electronics. By recycling, society can create a more wholesome and sustainable environment in which every resource is used to its maximum potential. We hope that this project will help people to see the ease and benefits of recycling and motivate them to being recycling in any way that they can. The flowers are located in front of Ragsdale, by the Book Store.
