Recycling and Sculpture from Waste Packaging

Artist Helen Kennedy worked with two of our Start Programme primary schools after their visits to Paul Granjon’s Oriel Factory. Key Stage 2 pupils collected waste plastics, cardboard and metal, discussing their particular recycling issues, characteristics and functions and explored how these could be used to construct robots with moving parts. Another school focussed on the environmental implications and creative potential of plastic objects found in marine flotsam and jetsam to make a huge temporary floor installation, as well as an owl sculpture from milk bottles for their school garden.
