Enviromental Studies 2018-2020


These two projects are studies in consumption and waste. Overuse and fast fashion. Creatures form from landfills and become alive, Plastic People and Snobjects survive. Long after we are gone.




Plastic People

Snobjects

Snobjects 2018 - 2020


Snobjects is an ongoing project of mine in which I attempt to physicalise what it means to be me, what started out as a light and fun project become something extremely personal.

The masks are constrictive of not just the wearers face to the public but also the public to the wearers face, this suffocating feeling and sense of entrapment is something I aimed to capitalise on in this project.

The works are representative of the feeling of lonliness, the Snobject is created from the alienating feeling of being alone.










Plastic People 2015 - 2017


What would happen if plastic rubbish transformed into a new dominant life form?

Plastic People is a two year long photographic and video project I worked on wherein I explored the disastrous effects of plastic on the environment.

My key focus was on the effects it has on humans, the idea of being consumed is present in all aspects of the project as that is what plastic is doing to us, consuming us.
