You can create your sculpture whevever you want, this could be in your living rooms, bedrooms, gardens, parks etc...
It would be great if you could take photos at stages showing your step by step process as this will look great when mounting onto boards. It will also allow viewers to take a look at your thought processes from start to finish.
If you can not manage to join/stick items together, take a photograph of your sculpture when finished and then dismantle it afterwards.
Materials you could use:
Leaves
Plants
Wood
Metal
Foil
Plastic
Cardboard
Newspaper
Paper
