World After Us

Heat manipulated plastic bags, patina, LED’s

2017-2018

This installation piece reimagines a world after humans have gone extinct but plastic inevitably remains. How will it become part of the ecosystems it is left in? How much of this material will persist over centuries? How might we as artists make use of single-use materials with lifetimes longer than ours?
