DS 220 Installation Project 2024
OUR PROCESS
Initial Artist's Statement
Our idea is to create either a giant menu featuring a selection of appetizers, entrees, main dishes, and desserts or a shopping list that has a variety of groceries including the plastic packaging they come in. Near the bottom of the piece would either be the plastic hanging off the piece, plastic filling a shopping cart, or plastic bags filled and piled below the list with the same plastic they come in, to symbolize the large amount of plastic that is wasted with each meal we eat. To create this installation we will collect food plastic packaging that we already have and possibly build or obtain a shopping cart. This idea exposes our message about how much food packaging is thrown out and how it needs to be reduced.
