Propuestas de arte aplicado con cianotipia y upcycling para una concienciación sobre el impacto ambiental de la mezclilla

Abstract

The project “Applied Art Proposals Using Cyanotype and Upcycling to Raise Awareness of the Environmental Impact of Denim” is about applied arts design, mixing creativity, sustainability, and social impact. The main goal was to create artistic ideas using the cyanotype technique and upcycling principles to think about the environmental effects of making and using denim. With a method that included research, technical experiments, and critical analysis, the project created artistic and functional pieces. These pieces turned waste materials into visual stories with a focus on sustainability. During the process, skills in areas like aesthetics, photography, drawing, painting, and installation were improved. The pieces are not only beautiful but also share messages about the environmental problems of the textile industry. The project also gives value to waste materials, offering new ways to think about art, design, and the environment. The documentation shows the results and creates a model for conscious creation. This work wants to contribute to applied arts by mixing artistic ideas, social responsibility, and care for the environment, offering a new way to design sustainably.
