Light Waves
acrylic, single-use plastic and paper packaging shreds
2025
Microplastic pollution is contentious
reaching out with hands to grasp a smooth and soft flexible pouch
covering
containing tens, hundreds, thousands, millions
seeing
perfect repetition
feeling
care for, from the outside
holding
simultaneously infinite possibility and limitation, all at once
through material and immaterial
touching the deepest depth
searching for impact
nutrients and notions
my impulse aligning
to amplify preservation and beauty
which object of desire am I?
Light Waves is a sculpture containing 1300 50.8-millimeter-square acrylic boxes. Each box contains shredded plastic and paper accumulated as by-products of food consumption and unsolicited mail.
