WATCH: SETU students recycle old copies of Waterford News & Star for innovative art project

The models were created out of a pulverised clay made from old newspaper, before subsequently being remodelled over sustainable materials

An innovative art project was undertaken recently by First Year visual art students in SETU (South East Technological University) Waterford.

As part of the project the students utilised old copies of Waterford News & Star to transform fragile materials into sculptural forms.

The sculptures were designed in a way that could either absorb and respond to light, or hold a small body of water. 

Watch the video below as journalist Alex Cunningham finds out more about the project.

Sustainability is a key feature of the artwork and to read more about the project click here.
