Description
Rubbish rocks! For, whoever has an eye for it, there is beauty in everything, from rubbish to plain useless stuff. Designer Anja Brunt and illustrator Tineke Meirink have always been
intrigued by the beauty of the mundane. For BIS Publishers, they both made a memory game and now they join forces for a combination celebration and DIY book on rubbish art.
The book features fifteen international artists from various countries, who work with rubbish. It showcases some of their projects, and gives the reader step-by-step instructions to make their own artwork in the spirit of the artists.
The popularity of urban art, recycling and the whole 'make culture' gave the authors the idea to combine these fine works with DIY projects with step-by-step instructions.
That way you'll discover how beautiful and useful rubbish can be.
