Waste to Art category - Primary school class only (Years 3-6)
Recycled art is creative work made from discarded materials that once had another purpose. This includes anything from cardboard packaging to scraps of clothing and items found in our natural environment. Artists are encouraged to reclaim items which would have gone to waste to create something new.
