Environmental Art

King Yan Fina Yeung’s cardboard paintings focus on the intersections of unwanted trash and collected treasure ­­– the lost and found, the past and present. She likes to make new images out of discarded materials.

Many contemporary artists incorporate waste or litter into their works to speak to their potential reuse or untapped beauty. 
There is a growing push for the recognition of environmental changes happening. 

Create your own environmental art piece. Pick one item to be the focus of your piece? Perhaps a paper bag, bottle cap, or drinking straws. Are you interested in showing it as something reusable, its changes overtime, its inner beauty?
