Growing up in Savannah, Georgia, I worked at my parent’s health food
store, and as a kid my daily job was to take out the recycling. Through
the years I started to realize how much was not recyclable. I began to
think about landfills and where everything goes. There are islands of
plastic taking over the oceans, the earth is suffocating from plastic
that never biodegrades, and our water and environment are leaching toxic
estrogenic compounds. Visually, I want to convey the sacrifice we have
made by our consumption and waste. The wrapped bodies represent invasive
cocoons floating over vulnerable landscapes.
