Can Be Recycled Animation


Can Be Recycled
Stop frame Animation, Sheffield 2018
Single use drinks cans are usually made from aluminium. This is a material made by mining bauxite, a mineral found in tropical parts of the world. This is processed into alumina, which is then smelted to produce aluminium alloy. It can be remelted and reused an infinite number of times. without losing quality. Recycling aluminium uses 5% of the energy needed to make primary aluminium. This stop frame animation made from collograph prints of car crushed cans found on Sheffield streets, is aimed to highlight the malleable, adaptable and valuable material that cans are made from.
