Lucy and Jorge Orta

Lucy and Jorge Orta are Sculptors that uses recycled materials to make their creations. Their size of their sculptors are either tall and thin or large and wide, some of the sculptures are life size so that you could interact with the art work like the cloud chair, you might be able to sit on the sculpture.  The context what they use is where place their sculptures like some looks better outside than inside. Their inspiration is the Environment issues ( like global warming and credit crunch) and also politics. They go on global trips what concerning the 21 century environment and trying to sustain it.



Josephson

Josephson was a sculpture who worked for over 60 years his material was rock which he carved to make it look like a human form. Some of the sculpted artwork is like 155x96x86 cm  and some others are 74x227x55 cm  and the smallest are 17x12.5x5 cm. For the context the widest ones look better outside than inside by the natural light but the taller ones will look better inside because you can  use normal light to make the different sides glimmer and the smallest ones will have to be indoors because the will have to be attached to a wall.The main idea for his work was the evolution of the human form, in a abstract way.
