I decided to take this piece because it is beautiful to me and I wanted to put it on my wall. I know that this was at one point something that someone had\u00a0made, yet thrown away. I do not know why, but it is now able to bring me joy by adorning my room. The process of going through the trash was a pretty comfortable experience, I knew that there would be no food waste that I would feel gross touching. It was interesting to see the amount of thrown-out art, and objects that artists had deemed unimportant. I saw many sketches and scraped projects, and it made me think of the number of times I had given up on projects because they did not go the way that I wanted them to. I wonder if anyone would have found beauty in things I did not.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-176\" style=\"font-size: 1rem\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.hampshire.edu\/recycle2023\/files\/2023\/10\/VideoCapture_20231015-224514-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.hampshire.edu\/recycle2023\/files\/2023\/10\/VideoCapture_20231015-224514-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sites.hampshire.edu\/recycle2023\/files\/2023\/10\/VideoCapture_20231015-224514-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.hampshire.edu\/recycle2023\/files\/2023\/10\/VideoCapture_20231015-224514-624x832.jpg 624w, https:\/\/sites.hampshire.edu\/recycle2023\/files\/2023\/10\/VideoCapture_20231015-224514.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The object that I reclaimed is a piece of film that was at one point in the hands of an artist.
