My daughter is busy finishing off her Final Art Piece for her Last Year at School! It is an
Interactive Work of Art. Thanks to her I have learnt about this artform and come to recognise and enjoy it!
Something else I have enjoyed lately is the work of
Jean Shin [via
Caravan of Curiosities]. She prolifically creates beautiful works from cast off objects, giving them new life and showing off their beauty in a different way!
How many times have I thrown away a broken umbrella in frustration? Jean's work shows me I should have been collecting them instead!

I love the art of clothing hanging as decor objects! Jean deconstructed this clothing and left only the seams!

She used some of her own clothing to produce these Collograph Prints
