Challenge: Sketch some ideas of environmental installations in your sketchbook. Discuss why and how you might achieve this with your teacher. Does your idea make an impact on society or on the environment? Are the materials recyclable? Think about how the removal of your installation will happen. Will it leave a mark on the environment? If yes, do you think that is a good idea? Is that what these artists do?
