Abstract

This research gauged the possibility of employing recycled materials in contemporary American sculpturing. It adopted the descriptive and the content analysis methods. The population consisted of the sculptural works made from the waste materials in the United States of America. It recruited 3 artistic models purposefully selected as the sample. The researcher relied on the indicators resulted from the theoretical framework as objective criteria that can be relied upon in analyzing the 3 models. The results of the study showed that sculptural work can utilize different types of recycling materials, from simplistic to complex. Sculpture can display different themes, no matter how complex they are. Likely, the study revealed that the aesthetics of using recycling material was manifested through the differentiation of the sample models.
