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.
Story telling Robin Bady came to my studio to make some new images for her upcoming new website. Her storytelling show, Nancy Drewinsky and the Search for the Missing Letter, will be performed in February so you will see some of the photos are fun interpretations of that character.
Robin brought her magnifying glass and I knew right away one of the shots I wanted to get with that enlarging her eye!
