Environmental


task -  images and respond

 “Gateway” - Chris Booth

 “Art and nature have always been important to me. My parents love of nature had a huge impact on me and my three brothers. We grew up on an organic orchard surrounded by native bush bordered by a boulder strewn river. Most weekends we were taken exploring the local coat, river or bush. Our mother, an artist, painted. They encouraged us to use our eyes - to read the land, it’s ecology and human history. A seed was firmly sown” - Chris Booth.

This peace of work was interesting to me, I thought it was beautiful the structure on the way its sculpt is very unique and complicated. This sculpture reminds me of my childhood, as a child growing up in Samoa I was open to the out doors me and my cousins will always go in to the bush and build random things out of tree brunches and rocks.

      
The work is about intelligent explorations of space and present. Combinations of cardboard, tape, boxes, bags, and plastic waste. Her work references the recycling of waste as art.
I was drawn to this work because of the way its been installed, it looks like a pile of junk but a very interesting pile. Its useless materials placed carefully in to their place. The colour pallet of this work also interest me the object with the same colour are put together carefully its like she gave value to object that are seen useless and unwanted
