Citizen of the Earth
Plastic is a growing and very prevalent issue in the world today. In this body of work, I communicate various ideas about plastic use, plastic waste, and toxic ingredients in our daily products. I did this by creating and designing a concept for an organization called Zero Plastic, opening an Instagram account for the organization, and creating a helpful takeaway product that uses recycled paper. My aim is to be educational, action-driven, and straightforward. I hope that this work will embody its values, make people question their routines and habits, and have a lasting impact on the community.
