More Recycled Acrylic...

I want to share some of the other projects I have worked on in the past year or so.
I was talking about applications for recycled acrylic, and situations where it works and does not work.
The first picture is a detail shot of a window sill that I made out of acrylic, it is very interesting how the frosted acrylic pulls light onto the wall below it. Not like a prism, but in a softer way.

The second picture is a privacy screen that obscures a winter view of a fairly busy street. The frosted texture does a great job of providing visual interest from both sides of the screen. During the day the shadow play creates motion visible from the street, and at night the passing cars create motion visible from the house. The other interesting thing is that the screen seems brighter on gloomy cloudy days, like it is glowing!!!!
There are other experiments that I have done with the acrylic that I will share later, but as I said before I would not have been able to play with the material had it not been rescued from the dumpster.
