Natikwa Goodwin - Art Project .

​In my advanced art class the assignment was to create a piece of artwork out of used materials. The idea of the assignment was to use household items or things that can be found around you and make them into art. 

For my assignment I used old t-shirts, needle & thread, and pillow stuffing. For my project I made home made pillows. I first took the old t-shirts and washed them. After that, turned the t-shirts inside out and sewed the bottom. After sexing the bottom i sewed the two sleeves together. Then, I turned the shirt right side out and started to place the pillow stuffing inside the t-shirt. Finally, I sewed the top of the t-shirt together and I had a new made/ home made pillow. 


This assignment was good because it used items that had no more use. Instead of things going to waste, reusing them is always a good option. The regular things that would have been thrown into the garbage and adding pollution to the world is now less then it would have been.
