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.

Illustration of children playing near a stream, highlighting a message about the importance of outdoor play and environmental awareness.

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.

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.

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. ^_^

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.​

A layout with snack packaging, blue and orange feathers, shiny materials, and a sketch of a jacket on a mannequin-like figure.

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.

Illustration of bamboo stalks with text: "Growth. Keep growing. Wake up a newer person you were yesterday. Heal." A house is nestled among greenery.

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.

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.

A dramatic wave looms over a sea creature entangled in orange strings, surrounded by abstract marine elements and bubbles, creating a surreal seascape.

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.

Planet with trees, wind turbines, and buildings on one side, factories and pollution on the other, set against a starry black background.

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.

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

A colorful mixed-media artwork featuring crumpled candy wrappers forming a three-dimensional abstract shape against a painted backdrop.

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.

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.

Vibrant Threat

Nancy - 15


I have been researching endangered animals as part of my ‘in the news’ GCSE art topic. I have found out lots about which rhino species are threatened and why. 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 FUTURE WE CHOOSE

Victoria - 16 - Middlesbrough College

The piece is split into two with a positive and negative side. The positive side has a human face which has people of different backgrounds drawn in different materials to promote inclusivity. 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.

Trashy Octo

Kenza - 6

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.

Drawing of a flower with half in grayscale and half in color. A small Earth symbol is in the center of the flower.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A colorful, abstract collage highlighting environmental issues, including pollution, climate change, recycling symbols, and calls to declare a climate emergency.

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.

Illustrated concept for "Air Wash 2126," an eco-friendly machine using air and solar power to clean, iron, and dry clothes without water.

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.

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!

Colorful abstract painting with a hot air balloon, industrial buildings, trees, fish, and sun against a pink and blue background.

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.

Surreal collage of two children walking along a path, surrounded by nature, with a sunset and a flock of birds in the sky, all within a circular frame.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!

A woman standing in front of a mirror holds an apple. Her reflection shows a young girl holding a chocolate bar. Text reads, "School Reinvents You."

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 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.

A child and adult in a futuristic museum observe exhibits on sustainable energy, including a plant-like sculpture and a fuel pump.

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.

Artwork featuring a red octopus overlapping a human skeleton sketch, with "Natural Forms" written in black on a brown background.

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.

A painting of an eye with Earth as the iris, featuring long eyelashes and a large teardrop against a black background.

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.

Arna - 16

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.

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.
