Priceless or Worthless is the title of an exhibition which my course is holding, to explore the idea of up-cycling; turning a plain piece of paper into something new and priceless.
For my piece I have decided to create a cut out silhouette of a tree growing from the word 'worthless', with the word 'priceless' entwined within the branches. I hope this will represent how something worthless can grow to become something priceless and beautiful.
I began by cutting out half a tree template, then drawing round it twice onto black card to create a whole tree which is symmetrical.
I then cut out the letters needed for the words worthless and priceless, and drew round them onto the tree design. The words had to be drawn on backwards, so that after I have cut the whole image out I can flip it over, and the words will be the right way round.
