Recycle of Time

Recycled Material, 2018

The concept of this piece was to find recycled or outdoor material and compose them into art. This piece I made represents the time of day of a modern day person's life. It shows that at the different hours of the day, people get more tired and ware down around the afternoon, but they sleep and rejuvinate their energy in the morning. As people get more tired at night, they start to be unhealthy, which is why the afternoon hours are soda cans. The water bottles mean that they are more conscious and stable in the morning to noon.

I chose this piece because I really like the message behind the hours of the clock.The soda cans and the bottle tells a big part that makes that viewer think harder than what is shown.
