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.
I had the wonderful opportunity this summer to photograph Danny Jonokuchi's big band with special guest Catherine Russell for the JALC summer concert series. In addition to the fabulous arrangements and stellar musicianship, there was swing dancing and the vibes were super high. I loved riding my bike to this show and people watching with a cold beverage in hand during the set break.
