PLASTIKO

PLASTICUS

2015

Textile manipulation - Plastic bags  =  Moving images

The supermarket as inspiration.

The plastic bag is central to this project. Far away from the ecological footprint the material is associated with today, the plastic bag is here light, colourful, ethereal - in other words, a great *plastic* material. 

It takes on a new function and becomes visual, noticeable, and suggests a new narrative, in opposition to the expected of everyday life.

Behind this link are hiding a myriad of plastic bags - they are staged, almost personified. 

With a direct inspiration of the surrealistic aesthetic of 'Toilet Paper' these bags reinvent reality.
