Creativity from Without

An example of design without creativity is this artist in New York who uses the air from subways to inflate these sculptures made of trash bags. He utilizes the environment around him to make something creative. His sculptures, mainly animals, show them as sleeping and when hit with a gust of air from the subway vent it comes alive and animates to the wind. Creations like these can be like the urban version of Andy Goldsworthy art. The artist uses the useless things in his environment and makes art that is aesthetically pleasing. It is also temporary like Goldsworthy's art in that people could just tear it down or the trash man would dispose of it.
Similar to stone soup this artist made use of what he had in his disposable and made something innovative from old things that others would never use. It characterizes creativity by looking like it’s a piece of trash scrap but then transforms into an almost animate being. The creative process is important in these kinds of art, because mostly they are visually pleasing to catch people’s eyes as they walk down the sidewalk and unlike still art it moves to call attention to its self. It usually reminds me of the air people from fans that businesses put outside to attract customers. This is for the art alone and is purely original in idea of what the environment has to offer to artist. This art inspires other designers like me to look at what’s around us that we can modify to create something eye catching.
