Summary of artists work

Noble and Websters work is made from rubbish taken from the streets of London, they transform it into works of art which surprise the human mind. Their method of re-using is similar to that of Christo and Jeanne Claud's artwork although they have slightly different meanings. Noble and Webster got inspiration from the Egyptian themes of mummification and sculpture and this in a way links to how Christo and Jeanne Claud have used wrapping in their sculptures like how the Egyptians wrapped the dead to preserve them. In some ways the sculptures are similar in the materials used, Christo and Jeanne Claud use the landscape and use materials to wrap it or they re-use materials to make a statement. This is similar to how Noble and Webster re-use rubbish they have found and collected. Julie Starks's works of art re-create the natural world using natural materials, some of her work is created by children as opposed to Noble and Webster who create it themselves. Jeff Pigott and Julia Warin have done a lot of community projects working with children similar to Julie Starks although the 'Insectabike' was a huge projects compared with Starks's 'Seeds'. They both reuse materials but the 'Insectabike' was very unnatural and not organic like the seed's project. The colours and tones are very different. Jeff Pigott created his spaceship work of art with the help of children, he also only used recycled materials and makes a statement similar to the way he made a statement using the shopping bags to create a huge wall of shopping bags. This statement was to raise awareness of how many bags are used where as Christo and Jeanne Claud liked to made political statements. Their work was environmental, interactive, and collaborative, they used a lot of materials and made a huge statement where as Pigott made smaller but equally important statements.
