My New Inspiration: Installation Art

This is an art that just blows my mind in every way possible, so I think its worth sharing. It’s definitely the type of art that inspires me as a creative thinker. I don’t even know what to call it, therefore, I have named it Installation Art. Oops: I just googled that phrase and it turns out I didn’t come up with it – go figure.

In any event, meet artist Reuben Margolin.

I discovered Reuben’s work when I recently walked into the David Brower Center, and hanging from the raised ceiling was one of his installments, rotating and flowing in a mechanical, geometrical, sculptured, patterned, fluid-like thing in motion.

Worthy Ocean Cleanup Project Seeks Funding

This 19 year old creative genius appears to have invented a realistic ocean cleanup concept. He needs funding to prove the potential…Amazing! I haven’t read too much about the specifics of the project but the story is very inspiring nonetheless.

At the time of publishing this blog post, the campaign had raised $6,969 of the $80,000 stated goal, with 30 days remaining.

With $80,000, we can cover all estimated costs to scientifically prove the concept’s feasibility. Our research includes 35 research topics in the fields of engineering, oceanography, (geo)physics, ecology, finance, maritime law and recycling.

By finishing this all-important study, we can continue with an open ocean pilot, followed by the actual full-scale execution of The Ocean Cleanup.
