RECYCLING PAPER

For my art intervention I wanted to deal in recycling paper scraps, bags, or any paper that is no longer in use.
This idea started awhile back when I first started my tattoo career. At the time I was still studying at NJCU where I had many studio classes. In between both work and school I came to realize the amount of paper being thrown away! Later on I saw on YouTube that you can actually make handmade paper with loose paper scraps! Around the same time I wanted to start a clothing brand , even though at that time I still didn’t have a name or actual brand identity. I did have a plan where I would recycle any no longer used paper I could get my hands on. Then shred it and dye it black, to later create the shreds into large handmade papers. Which I will then use to wrap the clothes for my brand. From this idea is where I found the topic for this Semester’s art intervention.
The plan is to leave a box on campus with a poster explaining the art intervention. Asking students to donate any paper scraps they no longer need or used. Then I will used those scraps to make Hand made paper crafts such as paper, envelopes, maybe even small books. Which I will redistribute back to the students at the same location where the donation boxes once were!
