Abstract : Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun
This article explores the application of cement-based composites as an innovative crafting medium in pottery, 3D wall hangings, sculptures, and relief murals. This problem-solving visual arts pedagogy serves to provide insights to teachers and students on viewing cement-based composites as an alternative to clay and concrete. This new knowledge aims to inform innovative approaches to the role of the visual arts education. Cement-based composites involving the use of recycled paper, sawdust and Styrofoam, offer a platform for artistic expression and sustainability in the crafting realm. The article discusses the material composition, properties, crafting techniques, and artistic possibilities inherent in cement-based composites across each application. In the light of encouraging sustainable and eco-friendly projects, papercrete has been found to be a versatile and transformative crafting medium for various projects. This study has also uncovered an implicit interconnectivity between innovation and creativity, art practices and meaningful learning in classroom. Keyword: cement-based composites, pottery, wall hanging, sculpture, relief mural
