Description:

Your challenge: Make a piece of art using found objects from your workplace, and send to your partner with a note explaining what you used.

Examples of materials: paper clips, shredded paper, coils and spines from old presentations, empty inkjet cartridges, manufacturing rejects, lids from containers, packaging supplies, construction materials, old parts. The weirder the better! If you can, use something that only people in your line of work would be familiar with. Of course, nothing toxic, and please use only discarded items so you don't get into trouble for stealing!

It's fine to use backing materials, glue, and paint/ink to put your masterpiece together.

Thus swap is internationsl, and open to swappers with at least 2 recent ratings of 5. Anybody who looks like a flaky swapper will be banned.

Have fun!

Oh man, I wish I wasn't taking a break right now... I work for an art and design company and although that is not what I personally do for the company I always have fun things floating across my desk!

Oh this is going to be so FUN! I work at a wholesale nursery and we're constantly throwing away tags from plants, lots of them have pretty pictures of the plants, or maybe it's just the botanical name. I've been just dying to find a way to have those tags used as art! Here's my chance to do it!
