Jane Perkins is a
UK artist who uses found objects and recycled materials to create something
new. On her website Perkins
says she gets most of her materials from charity shops, boot sales and the
recycling centre, including donations from friends and neighbours. Perkins says
each piece usually takes about three weeks and that she initially uses a glue
gun so she can play with the layout and move objects around. Once satisfied,
she paints the whole artwork with a layer of diluted PVA glue.
She obtains her inspiration in found
objects. She uses anything from toys, shells, buttons, beads, jewellery etc. as
material for her re-interpreted contemporary art. Perkins states that she
doesn’t add any colour, her work comes out of spontaneously placed small pieces
of right size and shape.
