Junk Art

Junk art refers to artwork created from discarded materials and found objects, often emphasizing creativity and sustainability. Artists use items like scrap metal, broken furniture, and old electronics to construct sculptures, installations, or mixed-media pieces. This form of art challenges traditional views on materials and beauty, promoting the idea that value can be found in what is typically considered waste. Junk art not only highlights environmental issues, such as waste reduction, but also invites viewers to appreciate the artistic potential in everyday objects. It fosters innovation and encourages a more mindful consumption of resources.
