Artist Statement
My work is called Sea of Plastic. Plastic is taking over the world and the ocean at an alarming rate and I believe that it could eventually suffocate under layers of it. My photograph is reminiscent of the sky and the ocean on a horizon. The plastic bottles I have chosen organically mimic the fluid motion of a body of water with cresting waves. The moody sky is dark and represents the impending pollution from the production of plastic that fills our air. We are living in a time that over-produces and over-consumes plastic. With this continued usage of plastic products, we will eventually cover the natural world in a thick layer of pollution.
