You will create a cereal box collage in the style of artist Michael Albert.
This is also a great way to recycle which we know helps the environment. What message does this send to others when they see art is made out of something we use everyday? How does Michael Albert’s artwork make you think differently about garbage, recycling, and the consumer items we use everyday?

Supplies You’ll Need

Recycled materials (cardboard food boxes)
Scissors
Glue


 You will need a piece of cardboard any size for your background.  Here is a video that Michael himself made for you to watch the process. This is a very special treat to have the artist himself demonstrating. Enjoy☺ Some students examples are below.
