Packaging tape art by Mark Khaisman
The packaging tape is a brother to us all. We say ‘brother’ because this packing adhesive is something that we cannot really live without at home. Indeed, this packing adhesive can be used for many purposes which are not limited to the simple packing and transporting of items. Basically, we can use it to plug holes, we can use it as a temporary replacement for nails, and we can use it to join things together in the absence of a strong glue.

Recently, one of the most outrageous applications of the packing adhesive is in the arts. Normally, we would not consider using the packing adhesive for art’s purpose. Indeed, how can we use something with a singular and dull color for an activity that would require an output that is pleasing to the visual senses?

Well, for the information of everybody, packing adhesives can be used for art. in this article, we are going to discuss some of the means with which we can employ the adhesive to improve our art creations and even propel them to greater artistic heights.

First of all, we can use the packing adhesive in order to connect things together. This is particularly useful when you are an sculptor. Basically, gone are the days when sculptor art meant creation of life-like outputs. Now, artists are free to express their minds. Whatever their creations might be, for as long as they evoke strong emotions, then they are making art.

Basically, iron and bronze are favourite materials used by artists. This is because these materials last forever. Normally, these materials are wielded together for a tough bond. However, some artists forgo the use of wielding to permanently connect the materials. Some more modern and more rebellious artists make use of the packing adhesive to connect their materials.

The truth of the matter is this, the packing material is actually very symbolic. When you use it on your art, you do so because you want to imply something or you want to say something indirectly. What, then, is the hidden meaning of the use of the packing material in your art? Well, it depends upon the artist, actually. Generally, however, the gray packing adhesive means removal of freedom. Basically, the adhesive has long been used to symbolize the control of the art and the creative sense. Lately, it has even been associated with corruption and persecution and bondage.

So, if you are an artist, and if you want to make something that is interestingly and admiringly outrageous, then you should try using the packaging tape in your art.
