Reinvention art competition gallery
We're celebrating this year's Turner Prize, hosted by the Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (MIMA), by running a UK-wide art competition for young people aged 5 - 25 on the theme of 'Reinvention'.
Explore the gallery to see how our entrants are reinventing the world.

My wish
Isobelle - 12
The genie represents my wish for a greener cleaner future. The genie has a big brain and a third eye as that is what feel it would take for my wish to come true. We all need to come together (if you share my wish) and reinvent the future with solar, wind and hydropower, smaller efficient homes with living roofs and electric cars, cleaner waterways and nature reserves flourishing with wildlife. A stark contrast to our current way of life which is represented in the background.

Care for our home
Arina - 11
This drawing reimagines our planet not as a resource, but as a living home that needs our love, gentleness, and protection. By showing a happy, sleeping Earth, it reminds us that when we transition to clean green energy and care for nature, the entire planet can finally rest, breathe easy, and feel safe.

ALEX
Brooke - 11
Its a jungle wood. Reusing and recycled items to good for the environment to bring nature to my room. Reinvented the wrapping paper to make the background texture and used stones from the garden to make a pond. My reinvention idea was to turn everyday materials into a creative jungle habitat instead of throwing them away. This helps reduce waste and shows how recycling can be good for the environment.

Children Must Play Outside
Charlie - 13
I drew some kids playing by a stream. The centre kid is interacting with the natural world in two ways: one hand steadying himself on the soil, and the other feeling the fast stream around his finger. The other is making his way down the steep soil, holding on to the grass beside him. These points of contact symbolize how kids should touch grass, and how if someone doesn't have joy in nature, they are likely to start seeing it as something repulsive and dirty; If parents keep telling kids to be careful and keep them inside, that bond with nature will be weakened. So they would be less likely to respond when told to save the natural environment, because love for it isn't in their life. Kids must play outside, or we will develop an apathy towards environmental degradation happening around us.

Eco Solar AI Bots
Trishika - 7
Eco solar bots keep our parks clean by collecting rubbish for recycling. To keep our local parks clean.

My lighthouse
Conor - 6
I love drawing

A stroll
Michelle - 12
A girl walking down a path, near a house. I chose it as I had read a news article about feral cats not adoptable and being placed in a barn as a home at a farm as pest control. In the same article, there were tiny sheep that would eat the weeds under grapevines so they control the weed growth.

A Cleaner Future
Max - 8
My artwork is a collage using pictures which I found in magazines. My collage shows how we could cycle or use buses instead of using cars. I also included a picture of a solar panel to show how can use cleaner energy when we need it. I added some leaves as decoration.

A lightbulb moment in sustainability
Sasha-Louise - 19
My artwork represents the past of what sustainability used to be and the lightbulb moments Octopus Energy and society had in order to change it.
They grey colourings represent the darkness and negative views the world has towards the history of sustainability. It provides an opportunity of looking into the past of what has been, in order to see a brighter future. The items the octopus is grasping represent ideas around plastics and littering in our oceans and how this can affect not only our planet and animals but also end up within our foods including our fish we consume.
Our octopus is also grasping onto a car which is representing the harmful emissions cars produce every second around the world promoting the idea of electric cars and public transport. Finally power stations are one of the leading sources of C02 emissions in the UK.
The lightbulb is representing the people who are realising what this is doing to our climate and those that are reinventing how we approach these growing issues. There is a tree to symbolise the reproduction of oxygen they can provide, wind turbines and solar panels that embody the ideas of renewable energy and how we can continue to grow on these inventions and finally the Octopus Home mini which is emphasising all of the work being put in by Octopus to encourage society to be more sustainable in their energy usage.

A Mind For The Future
Erica - 9
I have made this collage because I think we first need to reinvent ourselves and the way that we think about the world to save the earth and all the animals in it. All the plastic that has ended up in the water has killed many animals like fish and birds. This makes me feel sad. I made this art using my own silhouette and made the earth brain mosaic using purely recycled materials.

Save Our Planet
Umaeer - 7
I made a climate change poster out of recycled things like a garden bin bag, plastic bottle cups and papers. I make this because I care about our earth and I would like people to care about it too.

Keep our seas plastic free
Rosie - 8
Because I like to help all animals.

Wall of Hope
Ned - 15
My digital drawing is about my hopes for the future that it is positive and anything is possible but there is a barrier because of societies present problems e.g fossil fuels, water usage from AI production, contaminated rivers, littering and overdevelopment.

Reinventing Our Future: A Greener World, Beyond the Screen
Simone - 9
My artwork is about everyday habits. I wanted to show that we spend too much time on our phones and that we could use that time to do more positive things, like planting trees, exploring nature, playing outside and being creative.

Burn to Bloom
Marvin - 12
My artwork shows two sides of the world: one filled with pollution and destruction and the other shows peacefulness and a green planet. It represents how we can reinvent the world from burns to blooms.

The Threats of Global Warming
Aamimah - 9

Help the environment
Bodhi - 8
I want to help the planet because every day when I walk to school I smell the horrible petrol from the cars, I want people to start walking more often.

Two Futures, One Planet
Ethan - 9
I wanted to show two possible futures for our planet. One side shows a world damaged by pollution, smoke and rubbish, while the other shows a greener, cleaner world with trees, wildlife and renewable energy. I wanted to show that the choices we make today will shape our planet tomorrow. If we Improve the way we live, we can protect the Earth and make it a better place for everyone.

Premature
Mariam - 18
The egg of an axolotl to symbolise the fragility of the marine life we share this earth with. Reminding people to be more caring towards our environment.

The top of the hourglass shows a world that is polluted and damaged, but the bottom shows a greener, cleaner world with trees, flowers and renewable energy. The hourglass shows that we still have time to make a change. I wanted to show that even if things are bad now, we can reinvent the world and make it a better place for the future.

Recycle at heart
Jude - 6
Recycling is the best thing ever...recycle from your heart

Animals

Rooted in Hope
Yuna - 17
This single, fragile seedling is symbolic of our hope for the future - that even in a forgotten wasteland in the darkest of times, there is still a light in the darkness.

It’s All in Our Hands
Aarav - 12
The center of my artwork has of a set of hands holding brown dirt that has green leaves growing from it. A windmill and a solar panel sit right in the middle, like a small, green energy farm in someone’s hands. The background includes a stained glass like design of many little colored pieces, with blue, green, and purple colors near the edges and yellow and orange in the center, making it seem like the sun is shining behind the hands. On the left, there is an electric car being charged on a leaf-lined road, a lightning bolt running on a microchip, a rocket, and a tree growing out of a pipe that is shaped as a nuclear reactor. On the right, there is a clean river below the bridge, some power lines, a green lighthouse, and some small colorful people who are holding hands in a neat, maintained flower garden.

World on fire
Saule - 17
Pollution and greenhouse gasses will burn the planet unless we take action

Upcycle and repurpose
Viyan - 9
My submission is all about reusing and repurposing waste that can be recycled to make spaces for children to play. Lots of things are thrown away every day but what if we turned it into equipment for parks? I have made this park with a swing to highlight we can create open spaces for children to play and learn about how things can be reused and not sent to landfill.

We can change the future!
Meghan - 9
I made a clay cartoon Polar Bear sitting on a melting iceberg with loads of other small cracked pieces of ice floating all around it. The bear has a sign saying ‘HELP! Save my home!’ And beside it there is a list of things we can do to help save the Polar Bears home. I chose this because I wanted to show people that there are things we can all do to help stop Global Warming and make the world a better place.

We cannot become what we want by remaining what we are
Aoife - 15
I chose to make this art piece to show that if we all come together we can reinvent our world. It shows what our would could look like if we don’t make positive changes and a world where there is peace and love and animals roaming free.

Stop Global Warming
Velin - 9 - New Haw Community School
I tried to present the earth with bad and nice part and how global warming involves on it.

The silence suffering of marine life 
Troy - 7 - New Haw Community School
My artwork represents the impact of climate change and pollution on our marine life. I used recycled materials and every day objects to create a turtle surrounded by waste, highlighting the dangers of plastic pollution our oceans. My artwork Encourages People to reduce Waste, recycle and protect our planet for future generations.

It's still you
Amelia - 14 - Outwood Academy Riverside
My artwork explores reinvention and the idea that it is never too late to change or begin a new chapter in life. I drew an angle looking over a city but all eyes are on the angel, symbolising that your the star of your own life. The angel’s wings symbolise rebirth, hope, and the opportunity to become a new version of yourself.
I wanted to show that change doesn’t mean losing who you are. The quote, “Despite everything, it’s still you,” reflects how we can grow and change while still holding on to a part of our original selves.
Through this piece, I hope to show that everyone has the potential to reinvent themselves and see the world — and themselves — in a new light. ^_^

Natural Orange Juice
Amy - 11 - The Park Community School
It is a plastic bottle made of oranges that naturally flavors the water inside! I chose to make it in for fun in the Art Club.

Neglect
Evie - 16 - Middlesbrough College
This piece shows the wildlife thriving in our neglected waste and garbage, it shows the contrast between the harsh reality of pollution and the harmful ecosystem of waste it creates for wildlife.

Market
Laura Jayne - 18 - Middlesbrough College
My piece showing the meat market shows a change that needs to be made showing reinvention this is an important topic as people believe water usage mainly comes from AI but this is fault it actually mainly comes from the meat industry, I have shown this in my art piece representing their innocent lives and the treatment they face in the meat Morley.

trapped in a tangled world
Joshua - 16 - Middlesbrough College
My artwork shows the theme reinvention by using a fish to symbolise how pollution is taking over the world.

from textile waste to a sustainable future
Ella-May - 16 - Middlesbrough College
My painting explores the contrast between environmental destruction and the possibility of creating a greener more sustainable future. I used dark colours such as black, grey and brown to represent pollution waste and the damage caused by human activities while the bright greens, blues and yellows symbolize nature hope and renewal. The central figure connects these two contrasting environments representing how people can make a difference through creativity and positive action. I included a winding road to symbolise the journey towards a more sustainable world, alongside recycling symbols trees and signs to highlight the importance of reusing materials reducing waste and protecting nature. The colourful clothing represents creativity, and the idea discarded materials can be transformed into something beautiful and meaningful. Through my use of colour symbolism and contrasting landscapes I wanted to show although humans contribute to environmental problems, we also have the power to make positive changes and work towards a greener tomorrow.

Sustainable Jacket
Jasmine - 16 - Middlesbrough College
I have created a unique by using sustainable materials to decrease the risk of rubbish that spreads and harms the environment. I have appropriately designed a jacket by using different sources of materials such as crisp packets, chocolate wrappers, feathers,, sweet wrappers, sequins and googly eyes to show the different materials that affect the environment around us. Furthermore, I have created the jacket to be made out of plastic and clingfilm to hold the sustainable materials inside so they can't escape, by doing this it holds the materials inside the jacket to prevent spreading. In my opinion I think it would create a unique, inspiring look for individuals to wear or take inspiration and make their own piece by styling it correctly. I choose this jacket as I thought it would be different to others and it would be a stand out design, as well as it being useful.

The Hourglass Of Life
Eve - 17 - Middlesbrough College
My piece is meant to describe a vision of an hourglass vision of our green earth with all its greenery and animals and how bright and colourful it is, to how we are running out of time to change it from being a planet where everything is dying and our air is so discoloured and how we can't live a normal life on the planet anymore.

Bratz Bin Bag Bag
Carl - 17 - Middlesbrough College
This bag was made with the packaging of bratz dolls mystery bags to make a sustainable piece of fashion inside of contributing to landfills. This symbolises the way capitalism controls the world as people pay for things like over priced merch and dolls in a throw away society.

Upcycled Drawing Dress
Isabella - 16 - Middlesbrough College
My dress is created from used clothes and recycle materials. Upcycling clothes is a key part of my reinvention and the future. The dress is being made by a mix of recycled fabrics such as, old cotton T-shirts, Old bed sheets (for larger skirt sections or lining), old lace and mesh garments, recycled polyester clothing for lighter or slightly shiny details and scraps from different fabrics for the ruffles, flowers, bows and patch wood details.

Healing the earth

Polluted vs Green
Mila - 17 - Middlesbrough College
My piece of work is a visual representation of what an ordinary pathway looks like when it is polluted vs it being green and how the area around us can be changed due to pollution. It shows how the areas affected by the people living in it and how we can make a difference, not only in a positive way.

the drifter
Rowan - 17 - Middlesbrough College
2 denim jackets that were ripped made into a fully wearable fashion piece, upcycled fashion.

Ripped & Restored
Cohen - 18 - Middlesbrough College
My work includes upcycled clothing and fabric that has been donated to charity shops and unused clothing items. The contents of my piece consist of A white and red shirt. This white shirt was ripped using scissors and ripping it by hand. The black shirt underneath it isn't stitched so it can be swapped out to give it some variety. Lastly, the bottom of the arms are stitched with fishnet gloves to give it a mesh texture and to make it much fashionable.

Mother Nature
Gabriele - 17 - Middlesbrough College
My work presents a collage art that is meant to represent mother nature in all her glory, the collage art is a mixture of animals, plants, arctic life and sea life, a symphony of everything that mother nature provides and is considered as the source of life and guiding force of creation. I have created this as a reminder for people that we rely on nature for supplements of life and that nature is just as sacred as any other living thing on this planet.

Growth
Zaara - 18 - Middlesbrough College
My work is a representation of growth. Its meaning is for us to grow and become a newer version of ourselves than we were yesterday. We as a society need to help the Earth grow, help its environment thrive and become something new and healthy. I drew a home on a cliff side to show structure and safety, safety from falling and losing all progress made to make a safe environment. The mountains in the back represent strength, the strong and grounded rock from the earth stands tall, it doesn’t grow but it stands tall, unshaken or beaten down to the ground. Bamboo plants are constantly growing, more fresh too. The more the bamboo grows, the newer the bottom layer is and the taller it gets, meaning the house grows taller with it. A healthy bamboo plant continues to grow taller while an unhealthy one might not be as tall, shown with the bamboos in the back, some wonky and others just short. These are causes from the bad environment, nothing or no one can grow because of the harsh climate. But if we were to change and help the earth grow, we can have a renewed environment and climate, to help our world expand.

Happy Bubble!
Maeve - 7 - Welwyn St Mary's
My drawing is about reinvention because I imagined a bubble in the future where nature and technology work together. There are colourful buildings, flying cars, rockets, flowers and clean energy. I wanted to create a happy world where people, animals and nature can all live together. I added a little pink octopus at the bottom because it's for the Octopus Energy competition!

Our Choice
Reyansh - 11 - Sir Thomas Rich's School
My artwork shows sustainability by symbolizing time as a hourglass. It shows how we are making the choice of having a greener or cleaner future. I chose the title 'Our Choice' because that's what we chose to do with our world.

Too Small A Bucket
Matilda - 13 - The Park Community School

A World Worth Protecting
Edith - 12 - The Park Community School
My artwork shows the concept of humans protecting wildlife from the destruction they cause. I chose to make it to raise awareness of pollution and help our earth.

The Sad Life of Willy the Whale
Milly - 12 - The Axis Academy
My piece of artwork is about pollution and how it can affect other animals and what damage it can cause. I used acrylic paint and other methods of painting to create the artwork about it. I used a 3-D printer to make a sculpture of the 3-D well after priming and painting it as well as using elastic cord painted orange to look like fishing wire.
I was inspired by rubbish in the ocean, including bottles, plastic bags, fishing wire, and other plastic packaging and rubbish. I used acrylic paint and other stuff to paint and destroy a beautiful sea skate to create destruction with rubbish and garbage to to explain how the pollution is affecting the sea.

Choices We Made
Rosie - 10 - The Axis Academy
This artwork represents the good and the bad in the choices that we make that affect the environment. The healthy side shows solar panels and wind turbines to use the natural resources effectively. It has healthy land and a clear blue ocean. The other side shows lots of buildings and smoke causing pollution and the land overheating and the ocean being dirty because of people getting rid of their waste into it.
Oil Pastel and Chalk Pastel on black paper.

The plastic serpent
Joel - 14 - River Tees Grangetown
This is a sea snake made out of recycled wrappers and a plastic milk bottle. Sea snakes are my favourite under sea creature, and I wanted to create one by reinventing old rubbish into something eyecatching and exciting to look at. I worked with a classmate to create the background of our design

Clowning around
Charlie - 13 - River Tees Grangetown
I chose to create a clownfish with 1 other student in my class, we re-used sweet wrappers to create our sea creatures scales. We felt as though this fit the theme of reinvention well as we have gave the sweet wrappers a new purpose.

One World
Nursery to Year 6 - Blaydon West Primary School
Every year group - from our youngest nursery children to Year 6 - came together to create this stunning collaborative artwork. Exploring our theme of "reinvention," we used a rich mix of mediums, including sculpture, painting, drawing, and collage, with a special focus on recycled materials.
Our Nursery and Reception children painted and drew small figures hidden throughout the piece, symbolising that the future of our planet belongs to them. Year 1 built windmills from repurposed items to show how we must reinvent our technology to protect the planet. Year 2 crafted striking sculptures of our world while Year 3 created cardboard sea creatures to highlight how vulnerable marine life is when we fail to protect our world. Year 4 built intricate trees using recycled paper to demonstrate the impact trees have on our environment. Year 5 painted earth scenes, tore them up, and pieced them back together in a powerful collage representing a fractured environment. Year 6 designed large-scale landscapes celebrating the different corners of our world.

Save the earth

Energised Earth 
Lorena - 10 - Highfield Middle School
I chose to make it because I am very grateful to have a life on this very Earth 

The future is green!
Jasper - 11 - Monk's Walk School
My drawing is about reinvention because I imagined a future where robots help people look after the planet. My friendly robot is watering vegetables and flowers outside a futuristic house. I wanted to show that technology doesn't just have to be about machines and flying cars, it can also help nature grow. I hope the future will be greener, happier and full of friendly robots.

I studied different artists (David White and David Dancey-Wood) for inspiration and then drew my rhino in pencil during my mock exam. I reinvented the horn in my drawing to make it more vibrant in colour and texture, to highlight why these creatures are often poached.

The eye of the human side reflects the world. The eye of the robot side is a camera lens. The background for the robot side is covered in factory smog. This side of the painting represents the consequences of AI usage. The background for the human side has a blue sky and rays of sunshine plant leaves. There is a blossom tree to represent new beginnings. I used a collage technique and a range of different materials such as acrylic, watercolour, soft pastel and oil pastel.

Once there was an octopus called Trashy Octo and he was covered in trash because people are putting lots of rubbish into the sea. Lots of animals can get stuck in the rubbish like Octo which hurts them!
I reinvented trash into art to inspire everyone to clear up your rubbish! So all the animals can get better and be safe.

Dystopian
Amirah - 16 - Middlesbrough College
In my artwork, I have shown the reinvention of the Earth’s atmosphere, transforming it from a dull, gloomy environment into a bright, colourful world. The lack of colour on the left half symbolises sadness, suffering and misery, while the vibrant colours on the right half represent hope, happiness and new beginnings. I used shading pencils and coloured pencils throughout the piece to show that the same materials can create completely different effects depending on how they are used and interpreted. This contrast highlights how the world can be seen in different ways and how positive change can transform something negative into something beautiful. I ripped the page out of my sketchbook to bring a rawness to the piece.

you're never too small to make a difference

Reinvention of cyberpunk

Black Meridian
Cameron - 16 - Middlesbrough College
My comic portrays a darker opposite of a brighter, greener future, showing the devastating consequences of companies prioritizing profit and stability over the environment. Through ruined forests, decaying wildlife and destroyed habitats, I wanted to highlight the damage of pollution and human exploitation is causing to wildlife and its ecosystem. This comic serves as a metaphorical warning of what our future could become if we continue to neglect nature with our dark desires of greed and neglect. Reminding readers that protecting our planet today is essential to preserving a healthier, greener world for generations to come.

Reinvention of cyberpunk

Old to New
Victor - 12
My artwork is about reinvention. When poor people are given money, it gives them the power to reinvent their lives. In my picture, the left shows what a poor person’s life would look like and on the right side it shows what a rich person’s house would look like.

Environment covers
Olivia - 17 - Middlesbrough College
Te top of the dress is made with the covers of books that are about how to save the environment and upcycling, this can give people ideas on what books to read to be more educated. The cape is made out of the pages of those books this is on the inside of the dress to signify the inside of the book.

Reinventions dress design
Isabel - 17 - Middlesbrough College
Upcycled dress made of CDs and pink feathers. The corset and bottom of the dress will be broken shards of CDs and the middle of the dress will be full CDs. The feathers will be on the top right shoulder and also on the bottom on the dress, trailing on the floor slightly.

Petal Dress
Scarlett - 16 - Middlesbrough College
I have shown reinvention by making a petal dress. Flowers bloom in different seasons, come back every year. They also change to their environment and have the ability to change shape and colour. This dress is made using tissue paper to create a petal like skirt and papier mache to create a hard corset with upcycled ribbon to tie the corset at the back.

Re-invention dress design
Chloe - 16 - Middlesbrough College
An upcycled dress made from used music noted sheets with incorporated rose flowers made from the music sheets. To create an elegant and flawless up-cycled dress using recycled materials.

Consequences
Grace - 16 - Middlesbrough
This artwork is based on nature taking over due to environmental destruction. I believe that nature in the future will take over our houses, factories and more to take back the land that was once there's after we destroyed it with pollution, deforestation and taking advantage of the resource's nature gave us. Nature will reinvent the world back to how it used to be before we destroyed it. I showed reinvention by showing what the future might bring, I did this using pencil and watercolours.

Recycled Dress
Paige - 16 - Middlesbrough College
I have chosen to make a sculpted dress made from different plastic bottle caps. This is to show how much waste there is in the world and that it can all be recycled and given another purpose. The dress has a corset typed top and a fitted skirt for the bottom.

Guardians of the green planet
Cecily - 10 - Highfield Middle School
This artwork shows a visual sanctuary. And a call to action of keeping the world safe showing our role to protect our world and preserve the planet.

The Turbo Breeze Express
Oliver - 8
My artwork is a boat that is powered by air which is sucked in at the top and blasted out of the back which pushes it along. I love boats and think future boats should all use renewable power.

Squid Power
Drew & Cameron - 13 - River Tees Grangetown
We chose to create a 3D squid made from recycled materials as we think this shows the theme of renewable really well. We hope that by using recycled materials for this project that less will have made thier way into the ocean or landfil.

Waves of change
Amy - 13 - River Tees Grangetown
I chose to create an under sea scene containing a message in a bottle. I used recycled materials to create it. I chose to make this as I hope renewable energy will help the ocean to stay clean.

Sea Happy
Pia - 5
I painted a picture of place I love......the beach

Robots helping the environment
Ginger - 10
Solar powered robots helping the environment by litter picking. I chose it because I hate litter. I go litter picking with my family lots.

Earth's Beast
Isabella - 15
The Earth has been personified as a human, and the 'Beast' is global warming which can be seen behind her. Why i chose to make this was because I believe we can still change for the Earth for the better, despite how big the problem seems to be, but we can't leave it for too long or else it might become the Earth herself.

The Gas is moving closer
Evie - 18
I choose to paint a bird full of cover sat on a alive brown branch with a gas mask over its face to show how even global warming affects animals as well as humans. I decided not to add the carbon dioxide as I didn't want it to overlap the colour in the bird.

Shattered, or is it now?
Kaviya - 12 - Wembley High Technology School
I chose to make it solely depict how all of us, including wildlife and their environments/habitats are suffering as a society and on one half of the image it seems as if all hope has been lost. However, by representing hope as a dove and a hawk as violence and aggression, stabbed by a arrow, shows how if we step up as a whole, hope and determination shall prevail. This mirrors of what I want to see, people fighting for a cause through small or big actions, a cause in which could determine the severity of of the outcome of climate change.

Air Washer 2126
Adeen - 13
I made this machine to show that it is possible to wash clothes in an eco-friendly and efficient way. Without using water, water is being saved and it is cost-efficient. This saves the depleting amount of freshwater left in the world which in turn, can be used for humans and animals that need it the most.

The New Generation of Submarine
Joshua -
My artwork is of a new type of submarine that uses rubbish that is collected from the sea floor to power itself whilst doing marine research. I chose to make this art work as I hope one day all methods of transport are carbon neutral or able to repair the impact that humans have had on our beautiful world.

What future will you choose for our world?
Emily - 15
This piece of art shows how there are 2 ways this world is going to go, climate change and the results of climate change or continuing to live a happy life with all life still living. We need to make a change and reinvent our world to make it have non-dead trees, normal rain - not acid rain - and animals still alive. We can't have our world looking dead everyday, make a change in something you do today!

Me in an alternate universe
Ello - 10
It's the older version of me because I was wondering how I'd look if I was older and I used my imagination and creativity to see it. I hope you like it.

Hands that heal the Earth 

Hanna - 7 - Peter’s Primary School
My picture shows that we can all help heal the Earth. If we care for nature, plant trees and keep our planet clean, we can make the world a happier and greener place. I chose it because I love nature 

Reclaimed
Yzabella - 13
My art is about old, broken places being reborn
I lOVE drawing vines covering ruins because it shows hoe even broken things fall apart, they can be reinvented into something intricate and alive it breaths another life and purpose into the piece and i poured my emotions into this piece.

Time after time
Elisabet - 11
I chose this because time changes and life moves on. Also everything changes and new things come.

Drifting away from bad habits
Ibukun - 13
My painting shows a contrast between two different worlds and a balloon in the middle of these worlds. The world at the top of my painting represents a world where coral is bright and colorful and where coral bleaching does not exist. There are lots of trees. However, this contrasts with the bottom world where there is pollution and smoke, coral reefs are bleached and there is plastic in the sea. Sea levels are rising, which causes floods. Ice caps are melting and deforestation is happening. Buildings are built in highly concentrated areas making people more vulnerable to sinkholes. This links to reinvention because we can chose to live in a world where everyone respects nature but we chose not to. The balloon represents humanity the balloon is middle of these two worlds just like we have a choice to move away from these bad habits.

A bubble of joy!
Aedan - 12 - The Purcell School
My collage is about reinvention because it shows how nature is always changing and renewing itself. I used different images of birds, flowers, water and people to show how everything in nature is connected. The sunset represents new beginnings, and I wanted to show how we can reinvent our future by looking after the natural world.
Earth Reinvented
Marcus - 7
An eco-friendly LEGO world that shows how people can reinvent their homes to live in harmony with nature, be kind to all beings, and reduce their carbon footprint.
Small changes in the way we live can help protect all life and the environment.

Reinvention of Town
Omotokunbo - 16 - Middlesbrough College
I have shown reinvention through photographing my local town of Middlesbrough and using found materials (textiles, wrappers) in collage form to show how energy can come from upcycled materials. We all must do our part to help the environment through recycling, upcycling and using renewable energy to turn our hometown green.

The Little House

I chose to do my artwork about a place in the future where nature is thriving and it looks like a utopia. It also shows the maginificent natural energies that can be harnessed too like solar, wind and water.

Traces of life
Mia - 15
If we continue endangering essential animals to extinction, there will be left only memories and shells of the past

Wonderful Future!
Wonder - 12 - The Purcell School
My drawing is about reinvention because I imagined a futuristic world where nature and technology work together. I included unusual buildings, giant mushrooms and lots of plants to show how cities could look completely different in the future. I wanted to create a magical place where people could live in harmony with nature.

A beautiful future!
Blair - 12 - The Purcell School
My artwork is about reinvention because it shows a futuristic city surrounded by nature. I wanted to imagine a different world where buildings and trees can exist together. The bright colours and glowing moon make it feel magical and mysterious. The person looking towards the city represents hope for a new and better future.

Renew, Reuse, recycle!
Rebecca - 12 - The Purcell School of Music
My drawing is about reinvention because I wanted to show how we could transform our towns and cities to be more environmentally friendly. I included solar panels, plants growing on buildings, recycling bins and lots of trees. My message is that by reducing waste, reusing materials and using renewable energy, we can reinvent our cities and create a greener, healthier future.

A perfect world!
Manhattan - 11 - The Purcell School
My drawing is called A Perfect World in My Vision. It links to reinvention because I wanted to imagine a beautiful, peaceful world where nature is protected. I included a colourful sunset, cherry blossom tree, clean water and green spaces to show what our planet could look like if we looked after it. My message is that we can reinvent our future by making the world a better place for everyone.

A green future
Lianne - 12 - The Purcell School of Music
My painting is about reinvention because it shows a peaceful world where nature and buildings exist together. I included green hills, trees, a bright sun and a house to show a beautiful environment. I wanted to imagine a future where we protect nature and create a cleaner, greener world for everyone.

Imagine a future
Chloe - 12 - The Purcell School
My artwork is about reinvention because I wanted to imagine a future where our oceans are clean and sea creatures can live safely. I used bright colours to show the beauty of underwater life, with an orange octopus as the main focus. My message is that we need to rethink how we treat our oceans and protect marine life for the future.

My Future Home
Sofia - 12 - The Purcell School of Music
I wanted to create a picture which shows where I would live in the future where there is still nature and beauty to be found in blossom of the trees and birds. Alongside, a traditional style house there are elements of the future like a space ship and new modern buildings.

The Reefs Are Being Bleached
Megan - 18
This piece is made of 100% acrylic yarn in crochet free form. I have taken the free form technique from crochet and created it into a coral reef.
The meaning behind this piece is to help spread awareness that the coral beneath our oceans is slowly being bleached out by the chemicals we put into our own waters every day.
The reason I decided on making this piece glow is to show that even when the coral itself may seem colourless and drained it can still shine the brightest in the depths below.

An Autumn Evening
Viraj - 11 - Sir Thomas Rich Grammar School
My artwork is a photograph of the sky in the evening. I chose to do this in my free time because I was encouraged to and I found this interesting.

A world of happy
Delilah - 6
It is a world with more trees and love. I chose to make it because I wish this is how our world will be when I’m bigger.

Ocean Bot 1000
Amelie - 10
The ocean bot is a small eco friendly and designed by recycled material, made to help filter and clean the sea from oil spill and little.

Dreaming
Mia - 13
I decided to make my artwork about dreaming because dreams allow us to escape reality and enter a world where anything is possible. I wanted to show the feeling of being lost in your own thoughts, where time, music, memories and imagination all come together. The clock represents time, while the stars, moon and colourful flowers represent the freedom and creativity of dreams. I used music sheets because music can also make us feel like we are somewhere else and bring back memories or emotions. Overall, I wanted my piece to show how peaceful, mysterious and imaginative dreaming can be, and how it gives us a chance to create our own world.

Nature's Beauty
Ellie - 17
I created this watercolour piece to show how front doors nowadays are bland and dull and have been modernised. By using vibrant colours and leaves growing alongside the door, I wanted to show how we can let “Nature take its course” and that we should embrace it.

Save the Oceans
Flora - 10
My artwork is about the ocean and how we can help it . In my work there is a jellyfish , whales and clown fish. At the top there is a boat fishing out all the plastic instead of fishing the fish . At the bottom there is coral scattered along the edge , under the whale there is a message - ‘treat the oceans how they treat you ‘ . The newspaper is meant to show all the rubbish humans have put into the oceans , my piece is meant to show how we can reverse our habits to help.

The Lamp
Zoe - 10 - The Purcell School
The lamp light shows the bright reinvented reinvented future. The people standing are the ones who put their efforts to change and thus, created this lamp. It shows that no matter how old you are, what race or gender, you can still make a change to reinvent our world. No matter how small the action may be. As long as we all work together, this 'lamp' might become true.

Save Earth
Unaisah - 8

The Ocean Keeps No Secrets
Callum - 20
The artwork is created by environment materials from nature and I want a deeper meaning to the piece. The paint that glows was created to make the Whale Shark and everything surronded around it, causing an extraordinary natural - like bioluminescence.
The meaning of the art work is influence and give people hope to help and restore peace and let the innocent marine animals live and free. It is a beautiful reminder of our lost ones that we have lost in our lives, such as family members, pets, wildlife and nature.
The art work shares that when we grieve, we also heal and grow as a person. The glow represents our beauty and afterlife spirits.
To get the artwork to glow, I used a UV light to charge, displaying it in a dark room, and watch the glow fade after turning off the UV light.

Industrial Night
Kevin - 10
I love to paint. My painting is about raising the awareness of pollution and what our future might look like if we don’t act now! Our days can become night…

Bee more colourful, Help save the Bees!
Evie - 5
I read the book Betsy Buglove Saves the Bees and I want to help save the Bees as well because we need them.

Artists of the Oceans
Idha - 12
Stingrays are very beautiful creatures and they deserve to be seen as living creatures and not something to be scared of. I really hope they are still around for my children and grandchildren to see. I have drawn a group of stingrays swiming up to the light and when they swim and jump its like they are creating art of a dance!

Infinitely Renewable
Sophia - 15
Remembering where you started and holding onto old habits doesn’t mean change can’t happen - people reinvent themselves every single day. Looking into the mirror is a reminder that it’s completely fine to glance back at who you used to be, as long as you're using that view to focus on the choices you make right now. The decisions you make today are what power your future. When you look in the at yourself you can be where you were, where you are now, and plan for where you are going.

The Voices that Change the Universe
Emily - 15
I chose to make my piece of artwork because it shows the people who speak out can change how our whole world looks. The cracked background is a representation of our current world before anyone speaks out and has a voice in changing the world.

All at Sea
Evelyn - 11
Concern for the world's oceans and their inhabitants.
Lego Passer Powered by Solar

It a robot that turns circular and powered by Solar. I built it to help my friends to get lego pieces to build their lego if they are bit further away from me and need lego pieces from me.

Owl
Luna - 12
It’s part of my home education art class and I wanted to experiment with different textures.

Green
Alice - 8
Save our earth.

The Ocean Keeps No Secrets
Callum - 20
My work is based on my favourite creature, a whale shark. It was also based on the shark that passed away in captivity called Taroko. I disagree with such large animals being kept in such small tanks. The secret of my piece is that in glows in UV light and shows the freedom a shark should have.

Green
Henri-Jo - 8
I love our earth.

Green Dreams
Lenin - 7
I love our world.

The Things We’re Leaving Behind
Jack - 21
In my opinion, the reinvention of energy starts with education. This piece is about the difference between then and now. At one end of the gallery, there is coal and oil leading into a fuel pump, representing our reliance on extracting finite materials from the earth. In the centre, a boy and his mum look towards a trophy-like statue. This is meant to feel like a statement about the future of energy.
The clean energy flower grows out from the coal and oil pipes, showing how something positive can come from what has caused so much damage. A lot of harm has already been done to the planet but I wanted to create this piece to show that it is not too late to change.

The World We Create
Eriifeoluwa - 12
This artwork explores different possible futures of our world, shaped by the choices we make today. This drawing represents the delicate connection between humanity and nature. Some angles reflect a clean, thriving world where people and nature coexist. The centre reveals a polluted and technology-driven future, where convenience, excessive screen use and constant exposure to information begin to affect how we live, think and connect.
The artwork also questions our growing dependence on technology and AI. As machines make life easier, are we becoming less willing to think, create and solve problems for ourselves? The piece allows us to consider an important question: Are we creating technology to serve humanity, or are we slowly allowing technology to shape humanity?
Most importantly, this artwork is a prompt that the future is not simply something that happens to us, it is something we are creating through our choices today.

Natural Forms
Tawia-Jane - 14
My artwork explores the connection between humans and the natural world. I combined a human skeleton with an octopus to show how different forms of life can exist together and transform. I chose an octopus because I find them fascinating and wanted to contrast its bright colours and flowing shape with the delicate structure of the skeleton. I wanted the artwork to make people think about nature, life and how everything is connected.

Can you see them?
Yasmin - 13
I’ve decided to draw an eye with the iris being the world. The water part of the world I put lots of dots there to represent nurdles. Then there is a tear also with lots of dots representing the sadness and nurdles. The background is black to represent sadness also because nurdles are harmful to wildlife and us. If we use less plastic, less plastic products will be produced then there will be less nurdles. Also when nurdles are in the sea due to spillage during transport for example, these then can harm wild life. When fishes for example eat the nurdles they then contain micro plastics and if we then eat the fish that then means we eat the microplastics and these can then harm us humans too.

The Living City
Arna - 16
My artwork shows a futuristic city inspired by an octopus, with organic and modern forms blending into and with architecture. I wanted to explore how cities could be reinvented ahead of time by combining renewable energy and architecture, creating a vibrant and positive vision of the possibilities of the future.

Wind Turbine 
Colby - 12
It’s a nordex n26 wind turbine and I made it because I like drawing them.

Bloom Through Darkness
Khloe - 16
Encompasses the idea of finding beauty, life and hope even in difficult or dark circumstances. It was my GSCE project.

Metropolis
Ethan - 17
I made this piece to show how energy can bring new life to an everyday city. I used glowing lights, bright colours and energetic marks to suggest renewal, transforming a dark London street into a place full of movement and new energy.

A City Re-energised
Chaeyu - 16
My painting depicts a city being renewed through colour and energy. I transformed familiar architecture with bright, unexpected colours to make the buildings feel alive again, imagining a more vibrant and positive future.

Reimagining the Familiar
Chaeyu - 16
I made this piece because I wanted to reinvent familiar London architecture and show it in a completely new way. I used intense colour, simplified shapes and bold contrasts to transform recognisable buildings into a vibrant,
imagined cityscape.

Bloom Through Darkness
Christiana - 9
My art is based on the pollution of the sea by mainly plastic and household waste. I chose to do this because I enjoy doing art but I also love the sea and nature and would like to raise awareness of pollution in the sea. The blue towel represents the sea up against the rocks. The man sitting on the rock and all the pollution in the sea. The clay follower represents hope for a cleaner ocean.

Reinventing our World
Kevin - 16
For this painting, I combined a colourful city with the sea, mountains, sun and wildlife to show a future where people, nature and urban life can share the same space and thrive.

Energy in Connection
Clara - 17
I made this to show energy as a connection between people, nature and the future. The colourful organic forms grow and flow between the figures, suggesting renewable energy bringing people together and creating new possibilities.

Renewable Future
Clara - 17
This artwork explores the connection between humans and nature, imagining a future powered by renewable energy. The organic forms and glowing lines show energy flowing between the human figure and the natural world, suggesting renewal and a cleaner future.

Reinventing Energy
Miles - 17
This 3D mixed-media piece explores energy through reinvention. I like photographing pylons and places that distribute energy, and I used these ideas to transform everyday materials into something new. The layers, bold colours and lines represent the movement and distribution of energy.

Powered by Nature
Gerard - 19
This painting shows the connection between nature, renewable energy and our future. The flowing landscape and bold colours represent natural energy moving through the environment, suggesting a cleaner and more sustainable world.

Energy of Another World
Begum - 16
For this painting, I imagined a strange and unique world where nature has been reinvented. The glowing colours and unusual forms suggest a powerful new energy, creating a mysterious world that feels alive, changing and full of possibility.

A City Reborn
Hailey - 19
I created this watercolour painting because I wanted to explore the idea of nature "reclaiming" a city, and nature being able to thrive even after human impact. I want this to show how there is still hope for the future of our planet and that it isn't too late to change, and that fresh, new life can still emerge in places ruined by humans.

Cartoon
Denny Charlie - 8

New Horizons
Imani - 14
I chose to make this piece because I believe that if everyone helps our world can become bright again and not be swallowed by global warming, litter, and harm done to nature and animals. I portrayed this by having every element connected to the light bulb earth showing it getting brighter with everyone's help.

Electrosphere
Sufyan - 7
Electrosphere eats bad stuff from the environment and turns it into good stuff for the environment.

Stickman City
Harry - 12
Stickman city is my dream city. In stickman city, there is always fun things to do, everyone looks after each other and the city is well looked after. I made this artwork to show how I want my town to be. I made it across 3 canvases so it can be long and you can see the whole city with everyone in it.
