"Waterfall Response" artpiece up in the Trenton Atelier



As a response to the BP oil spill crisis, the Trenton Atelier has constructed a 30' x 20' conceptual sculpture entitled "Waterfall Response". Constructed from purely culled materials, the piece symbolizes the effect of American Consumerist mentality of "big and shiny" and how it results in the destruction of the environment. The ripples of chip bag mylar gently cascade in a reflective waterfall towards the floor, where a pool of black oil has settled amongst the dirt and garbage accumulated at the warehouse.









One of many large pieces at the Atelier, "Waterfall Response" stands as a reminder to us all to clean up our acts and look at our own selves as the destructive force in our society, but also the only ones who can ultimately change our world for the better.

New Article in Trentonian

Hey all, if you have a chance check out the article in The Trentonian and comment here with your thoughts...


Trenton Atelier Pete Abrams says 'Let's just do something'


Despite the article's harsh criticism, we are actually DOING SOMETHING. We have gone in there, cleaned it up a bit, had an event, made art, laughed, partied, and generally had a good time, all the while, bringing other people who would have never thought to come to Trenton, here. Any press is good press, as far as we are concerned, and we thank Joe for taking the time to come to the Conceptual Tour and for his article.
