Ellen West

Mixed Media Assemblage

My artwork has been focused on using recycled materials for the past 10+ years.  I began with plastic bottle caps, CDs, lead printing press letters, and finally wooden frame samples.  All of these are readily discarded after single usage and dumped in landfills; except the lead letters which are often melted down and made into bullets. Making art with them seems like a better solution!
