“Only Room For Love” by Tamara Diaz (2011) This is a mixed media piece which is part of the Recycled Art Project, which spans over years. The project entails a collection of packaging from regularly used items which could otherwise be garbage. While working on other pieces, I use the left over paint from my brushes to create the backgrounds of the pieces, with the paint which would otherwise be thrown out. This is an important process on many levels as it allows me to get dirty and it is an experimental process. The last step is to use words to communicate feelings, whether they are about love, passion, wishes or heartbreak.
