“Cherry Tree”

     “Made exclusively from polypropylene pipe and nylon cable ties, this installation occupied an entire room at Industry Gallery, in Washington DC from September to November 2011.

The work partly pays homage to Washington DC’s own iconic cherry trees, whilst also questioning our relationship with and attitudes towards plastics. The longevity and ready availability of the industrially manufactured materials used to construct the installation stands in stark contrast to the ephemerality and natural beauty of the cherry trees and blossoms it emulates.”

I'm Arielle, I'm 19 and I'm studying fine art at Nottingham Trent uni, I like to work with film and installation art.

I have decided I want to make art that puts something buoyant into the general public. My hope Is that my work Is lighthearted, funny, cheerful and a little bit absurd.

So here It Is, my never ending list of things that Inspire, motivate and effect me personally. This Is where I initiate the art I aspire to create.
