See-Threepio
I had created this project when I was in the eighth grade. I worked on it from November of 2000 and finally completed it in February of 2001. In January of 2005, I took this project to school and began restoring it in January and finally completed it's restoration in April of 2005. The head of See-Threepio, is made from newspaper, tin foil and packing tape. The eyes are reflectors and the neck is a piece of draintile, with metal foil details in font and a metal washer in between the metal foil. His shoulders are plastic buckets. I used two cardboard boxes for the rest of the body. Upon his back, is a working radio. His midsection is made from the lid of a plastic bucket, with another plastic lid upon it. The circular designs in the middle are made out of tin foil. Around his waste are twisted wires, which go all the way around his body. His arms are made from tin foil and newspaper, stuffed wood to keep it solid, with pieces of tin foil on the elbows, for details. His shoulder sockets are sea shells, I used gloves for hands. His legs are made from newspaper and tin foil. His legs are stuffed with wooden rods. I used tin cans for knees, with tin foil and candlestick pieces for details on the sides. His feet are made from sandals. Everything I ever used to create this work of art is still there. Therefore, in restoring this project, I never ever threw anything out! © Art Is Life, Life Is Art 2000~2005
