My Dog Sighs Workshop

In the Free Art Friday workshop I created a ship out of a discarded pamphlet and a leaf. The leaf is the mast whilst the Pamphlet is the ship. The screws were used to create mechanical legs and added a mechanical feel to it.

Free Art Fridays

From our workshop with My Dog Sighs I created a pop art influenced piece using a nos canister and a piece of rubble found on the floor.

Lost and Found with MyDogSighs

Upcycler, recycling artist, street artist and can-man MyDogSighs worked with us today to help clear the streets around Winston Churchill Avenue and encouraged the students to create artwork from discarded items. Intrinsic to the workshop is the idea that the item is found - transformed and then left in-situ for anyone who wants to keep it.

In the spirit of Free Art Friday the students explored the techniques and concepts MyDogSighs employs and responded individually to the item they had found. These might be worth looking out for around the Eldon Building over the next day of two.
