Plastic Pisces 1

2018, Parian, digital media, recycled plastic, acrylic

Fish, made of parian to portray cold translucent marble reminiscent of death, are trapped in their motion beneath a sea polluted with plastics. From below a chemical slick sea is projected onto them and claustrophobic, distressful sounds echo round them. Distressed human faces on the ceramic fish reference the greater impact on humanity.
