“Stick your Plastic Up your Ars”, 2017 (from the Latin 'ars, artis'). Bark, smalti, marble, millefiori, plastic (40.5x40.5cm). 98% reused material: discarded bark, fruit nets and pen caps. Plastic is quickly accumulating everywhere in our world and hardly dissolving, thereby dramatically contributing to the destruction of our ecosystem. But we CAN make a difference: SAY NO TO DISPOSABLE PLASTIC! And in the meantime, why not reuse what of it is already there… and stick it up your ART? Currently on show at "Our eARTh" exhibition at @kunsthuisgallery #art #contemporaryart #mosaic #reusing #upcycling #recycling #repurposing #plastic #saynotodisposableplastic #plasticpollution #bark #disposableplastic #mixedmedia #stickitup #nature #thatartisrubbish #thankyouforyourrubbish #yourrubbishismytreasure #environmentalart #environmentart #environmentartist #mosaic #mixedmedia (at Kunsthuis) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs1KJPyHsaX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xl5j2lxhxclv
