Art Grows on Trees (Sort of)

Good morning, SuperForest!

SuperForester Sheri just shared a fascinating art project with us that demonstrates to us that indeed, one person’s trash is another’s treasure. Here’s what she had to say:

“At the Rhode Island School of Design lies a very cool project. The project was implemented by a RISD student who collected orphaned/unfinished/derelict artwork from trash bins at RISD. It’s quite a collection, and if you like something, you are free to release the string and take the art home for adoption.

Yea! Adoptable Art for all!”

What a clever concept! And not only that, to think that somebody saw the beauty of artwork that had been tossed away is wildly inspiring, too! You can view the flickr set dedicated to this project by clicking here! And I highly recommend you do!

Cheers to Sheri for the share!
