TRASH ARCHIVE – A SELF PORTRAIT

Gathering my used trash over the course of this week was a really eye opening experience for me.

During this process I was most astonished by the amount of packaging that makes up our food, personal hygiene products, beverages, every day products and more.

I presented myself next to the collection of gathered trash in the formation of my body. I chose to trace myself on paper and organize the tracing with all my wrappers and food packages to signify how much waste goes into the production of just feeding ourselves (which this project really opened my eyes to).
