Picture Perfect 〰️
"Picture Perfect" is my ongoing project which explores the urgent crisis of plastic pollution. Each piece in this series is a recreation of iconic landscapes. These collages are made of images of plastics I have collected from in and around the locations depicted in each artwork. This collection not only showcases the beauty but also exposes the harsh reality of plastic pollution within these seemingly picture perfect scenes. Serving as a reminder of the urgent need to preserve and protect the natural world that surrounds us.
A bit more about the project…
My motivation for this project stems from a long standing interest in environmental conservation. Regardless of the medium, my work has consistently revolved around themes of environmental awareness.
Growing up in a coastal area heavily impacted by plastic pollution, I was inspired to use collage techniques, drawn from children's illustration, to create artworks composed entirely of plastic materials.
With this series I hope to convey the stark reality that our beaches are inundated with plastic waste, and remind us of the importance of conserving our natural environment.
