Bridging two fields that frequently are in the news at Princeton – the arts and sustainability – the University’s first “trash sculpture contest” challenged members of the campus community and area residents to construct entries of materials that otherwise would have been recycled or discarded.
Among the 34 entries showcased Nov. 16 as part of the University’s Sustainability Open House were a 7-foot-tall jellyfish, right, created by members of the Liu family of Princeton, and a foil-faced Statue of Liberty, submitted by the Cranbury School and the Keve family. Rules called for artwork to be created by teams that included at least one child 12 or younger and an adult; cash prizes were awarded to the sustainability program of the winner’s choice.
