Parameters for Reflective Hanging Sculptures
In keeping with Adelphi University’s Green Initiatives, we are looking for students to use found and repurposed materials.
- The sculptures should be able to catch and reflect back the light from children’s flashlights.
- Be lightweight (approximate size 2-4 ft) and able to be hung from a branch with string.
- Abstract and/or geometric in design with materials securely attached.
- Consider designs that a breeze could create movement or sounds.
- Lightweight and able to be hung from trees/bushes with string.
- Some ideas for found and reused/repurposed materials that can be transformed are:
- Pie tins, old CDs/DVDs, cellophane, mylar paper, metallic gift bags, shiny boxes, metallic ribbon, and used glow-in-the-dark stars. PLEASE NO GLITTER
