Rock Paper Scissors Collective: Cardboard City
Through RPS's Community Collaborations Project, local artist James Ferrell has spent two month working with the disable artists at Creative Growth. Ferrell and other RPS volunteers have worked with these artist to teach them how to take 2D drawings and turn them into 3D sculptures out of cardboard. The works range from an oversize bust of Martin Luther King Jr. to a hybrid flower-satellite and will be available for sale, with proceeds going to the artists directly and funding future Community Collaborations.
To add that extra touch of special to the event Jame Ferrell, with the help of Mark Inglis Taylor and Nat Russell, have created some fantastic backdrops to compliment these creative pieces. As well as backdrops you can also see some of Ferrell's other creations like gladiator with detachable arms!
