speaking of stick... project i explored last summer drawn from how plastic effects the environment..

This was the process leading up to final outcome..i created two settings for the tube..

 ..here (after some cleaning up!

Before filling with bark..

 This is the final outcome, filled with grated bark..

 i even used dried leaves of varying shades for this one..

When we think of plastics we use everyday when there is, and always has been alternatives to our way of thinking and doing... take the humble teepee for example a great and resourceful way of using sticks and materials from nature..
