Plastic Magnitudes is the result of the artist’s collaboration with Andrea Valsesia, Dora Mehn, Jessica Ponti, Marisa Sarria Pereira De Passos and Danijela Brkovic, producing a sculptural installation made from community collected plastics, raising issues about micro and nanoplastics and food safety, and sparking positive conversations surrounding environmental concerns and a circular economy.
