Plastic Portraits is a project that seeks to explore our relationship with plastics. People in this world interact with plastics on a daily basis. From single-use, disposable items, to medical and technological equipment that many of us find essential to our lives, plastic is so integrated that we often use and interact with it without being aware of it.
By photographing different people with the plastics they use daily, this project opens the door to thoughtfulness and discussion around the plastics in our lives. It raises awareness of the ubiquitous presence plastic has in our world and hopefully will spark individuals to make more thoughtful, informed decisions regarding their own plastic consumption.
Explore Movement is Kirsten Adler's pilates studio in Park Slope. I've worked with her before several years ago and this follow up shoot was to feature Explore Movement's new space, as well as Kirsten working with several of her clients. Kirsten is fun to shoot with her silly and lighthearted mood! We had a lot of laughs while creating these images.
