The Art of Recycling

Here are photos from four different recycling workshops in the ELLA project.

The participants of each organisation travelled to visit their colleges and do a workshop about recycling art together.

They took place in Sweden, Poland and Greece.

Start with a movement exercise.

Stand two and two opposite to each other. One makes a movement and the other respond as a "mirror", and then changing so that the first person reflect the other persons movement One makes a movement and the opposite person imitates that movement.

After a while you change and the person who was imitate, make a motion and the other imitates. Kind of like if you stand at a mirror.

Quick drawing portraits – Everyone get to see each other and rehearse the names. (You write the name of the one you have portraited.)

Build an environment to the fantasy figure. Cardboard as a base, and then all types of recycle materials. The purpose, is to practically build, cut, glue, and find solutions to even the construction, every one can use all there experience and fantasy.

Presentation of all the fantastic works. Amazing, inspiring, fun, sad and exciting stories were told, about the figures and their environment.
