Our
ongoing relationship with the
material seems inevitable, especially
as the strength and durability
becomes synonymous with steel.
The subsequent byproducts and
obsolete materials do not necessarily
need to become stamped with
‘used by dates’, and ‘Revivication’,
the exhibition exploring plastic
in the contemporary world explores
the aesthetic and sustainability
of second generation plastic
with this in mind.
Mankind
faces near insurmountable odds
dealing with the byproducts
of its consumerist lifestyle,
however, the first small steps
must be to look at the beauty
and aesthetic within, helping
us to embrace the material.
