Response We started off by planning the sculpture and how we are going to make it. We did many
researches about the sculptures like Rome sculpture, inlay sculptures and many more.
Also we looked at many different sculptures what many people did I think I learned lot
because many artist work on their art work to inspired people and to send message around
to everyone. When Mr bray said that we are going to make a sculpture so I was very
happy and I know that I am going to learn a lot from this unit. Mr bray put us into 3
group’s one group doing energy, one group is doing rubbish and we are doing food waste.
I am working with in my group is Amar, Ryan and Irabazz and we worked very hard on
this project and the sculpture but the first thing that we did was we made many different
designs and some design was very creative and very eye-catching for the audience and
some designs was good but needed to be better.
Then we think of what design to do and we pick a man made out of tins so we called the
sculpture the tin man. We had many different cans but most of them were diet coco-cola
cans I think we worked very hard on the design and we had about 100 or 60 cans. The can
were diet coco cola, coco cola and many more. We made the tin man with a glue gun and
cans that how we create the sculpture. When we made the arms, head, body I think we did
very well and it was very fun to do.

Response The sculpture that was very creative and good to see because you can make sculptures out
of anything and this lady called Sarah Kaufmann but people call her the cheese lady
because she makes her sculpture out of cheese. Sarah Kaufmann is very inspired by cheese
because her farm was made out of cheese and she very like cheese very much.
Sarah makes her sculpture with a knife by carve the sculpture. Also she use different
colour of cheese to make it more eye-catching for people and she uses lot of cheese in her
sculpture that might cost lot of cheese by making it.
Cheese is very easy to make things out of because cheese is very soft and it’s not that
hard. Also you can make many things out of cheese. The cheese lady works very hard on

worked hard on this project also i used glue gun to be together the cans and I used many
different cans for the final project. We all worked together and we thinking what to do. we

benign on the sculpture.

would not break. Also we was glue the sculpture very strong so it would not break and we
try to do the arms, body and legs together so it would not break. The sculpture was very

Response I think we are aiming at teenagers because they don`t care about the environment and they
put rubbish everywhere. Teenagers don`t care that much about environment but they do
learn about it but they just do it. In high schools there is many rubbish on the floor and
they waste many food and they just put it on the floor or don`t eat it that is food waste.
We made this sculpture to show teenagers and many ages to not food waste because there
are poor cities with no food and that’s bad also it’s wasting many money.
