“One man’s trash is another man’s treasure”. That proverb couldn’t be more fitting for multi-media artist, Yuken Teruya. This distinguished artist brings new life to everyday objects that you and I call trash.
Teruya references consumerism and culture by using traditional techniques with unconventional mediums such as pizza boxes, toilet rolls and McDonald’s bags. Teruya believes that when everyday items become artwork, they begin to hold a political connotation because they are taken from everyday life. As soon as they are seen as an unconventional medium of art portraying real beauty, they are no longer political and can become something more meaningful.
The image here is called, NoticeForest. The tree is standing inside the same McDonald’s Happy Meal bag that it was cut-out of. It is quite interesting that Teruya created a cut-out tree from a disposable paper bag.
Perhaps the tree is a gentle reminder of where the paper bag came from? Art like this can inspire us to take action. Especially – and I can’t help but mention this – when featured in a newsletter that goes out to people who are already making a difference just by reading!
