'Plastic: The Slow Tsunami' 1.5 Metre square. Bottle tops, glue and board
An artwork commissioned by Staffordshire University Students' Union, reflecting on the unnatural disaster of a material that is consuming our oceans; plastic. I have been working alongside the Students Union, to encourage peers to reconsider the quantity of plastic bottles we go through as a University. Bringing the global problem of plastic consumption back to the individual and their responsibility.
These bottle tops have been collected across the University campus, as a material for making the work but also with the aim of raising awareness; encouraging staff and students to consider alternatives to become a more sustainable University.
