Playground made from trash gets children back in the swing
An
artist has turned thousands of plastic water bottles into an amazing
amusement park for children in Uganda. Check out his creations,
including a helicopter made of bottle tops and climbing frames crafted
from old tires.
- Ugandan Ruganzu Bruno raises environmental awareness through his art
- He uses waste bottles and other recycled materials to create functional pieces of art
- He won the City 2.0 Award last year for his idea to build a playground from trash
- He has also developed a loan scheme that helps eco artists
"What are you doing?" the
startled residents asked. "Why are you using all this plastic?" they
continued, baffled by the piles of waste bottles that were gradually
filling a dusty compound yard in the northwestern suburb of the Ugandan
capital.
What the group of artists
was doing was creating "The Hand That Speaks," an enormous structure
made of recycled materials to raise awareness about environmental
degradation.
"We were trying to bring
out the message that the hand is the one which is throwing this trash
into the environment and at the same time it could be used to collect
[them] and save the environment," says Bruno.

And once the nine artists
started assembling their futuristic creation, using more than 20,000
bottles collected in the slums of Kampala, the local crowds also decided
to lend a helping hand.
"At first, the community were confused but then they really loved it," says Bruno. "They were always getting us bottles."
Eco Art
That was about four years
ago, when Bruno was still a student at the Kyambogo University fine art
school. During that time, the talented painter and sculptor discovered
that he wasn't interested in just crafting artworks that would only
satisfy his creative needs.
I kind of felt a change within myself to think about others.

Instead, he wanted his art to have a positive impact on his community.
"When we are trying to
achieve things in life we are self-centered, and as artists we tend to
make work for ourselves," explains Bruno, 30.
"I kind of felt a change
within myself to think about others," he adds. "From then on I could
not only paint -- I decided to work on work that was beneficial to my
community."

Driven by a desire to
influence his surroundings, Bruno then became involved in eco-art
projects, devising innovative ways to deal with Kampala's acute waste
management problem.
In 2010 he founded Eco
Art Uganda, a collective of artists promoting environmental awareness by
transforming anything from discarded bottles and cast-aside metal to
broken TVs and computers into contemporary and functional pieces of art.

"I was looking for
materials that were not expensive and easily available," says the
soft-spoken artist, who hails from southwest Uganda.
"I really found that
this trash and rubbish could actually become a really positive way of
communicating to people," adds Bruno, who's won several accolades for
his work, including the Ugandan Young Achievers award 2011.

Amusement park
In April last year,
Bruno also won the $10,000 City 2.0 Award at the TEDx summit in Doha,
Qatar, for his idea to create an amusement playground for children
living in Kampala's congested slums.
I think a man will always be remembered by his work.

Using an array of
recycled materials, Bruno went on to transform a school yard in
Kampala's Kireka community into a fun and safe place where children can
play and learn.
The eco-park, which was
completed last September, is dotted with whimsical structures attracting
dozens of children each day -- from a colorful helicopter and life-size
board games made of bottles to recycled swings and climbing frames
crafted from old tires.
Bruno says the entire community, which lacked a recreation facility, embraced the project wholeheartedly.

"I talked to the head of
the school, and together with the parents and the students, they are
the ones who collected the bottles," says Bruno, who is also a lecturer
in the department of Art & Design at Kyambogo University.
"So we built the
playground together as a team and they know how to repair it -- this is
very important in terms of sustainability."

But more importantly, Bruno, who was orphaned at a young age, says the project has had a positive impact on the children.
"The attention of
children in class has improved; the number of children who are dropping
out [is falling] because now they have something to keep them busy
there, " he adds. "There is a really good progress and it has also
helped them to express themselves in class."
Legacy
Bruno says his goal is to recreate "as many as 100" similar amusement parks in other parts of Uganda.
He is also using the
prize money to grow an eco-artist loan scheme he's developed, aimed at
supporting the business endeavors of creative women in Kireka.
It's all part of his continuous efforts to be an artist whose work will serve his community's needs.
"I think a man will
always be remembered by his work, "says Bruno. "I'm an advocate now of
the environment; I'm an advocate for play for children; I'm an artist
...who wants his work to have an effect on the people.
