Achrome/Art Waste
Single-use plastic products, resin, plaster, acrylic, 2019
Trash Project began with the necessity of creating a honest fossil that represents our times, the trash tells an authentic story, no-frills or facades. These single-use products, often white or clear and that are slowly being replaced by biodegradable alternatives, are something that will sadly represent our time, but with candor, innocence and an almost poetic aesthetic.
