Discovering a wild remote paradisiac beach in Brazil, far from any civilization, i was shocked to witness the amount of plastic waste coming from the sea. From their texture, they had been floating for years and it probably had been drifting from various continents.
Beyond the tragedy, its diversity in colors and textures inspired me to create an art series from it, with the aim of reaching consciousness.
