For 7 years I have used in my work as an element more disposable plastics (sorbets, food packaging lids, heat-treated food containers or not) and other disposable elements that always contain plastics in their constitution as discarded telephone cables, plastic networks, plastic seals ... / Irene Palomar

At this stage, I tried to express through my work that the plastic that is discarded becomes trash that pollutes: it would have to have a New Life ... transform and thus save itself from its contaminating destiny. Eight million tons of plastics are dumped in the Oceans every year: 5 islands of plastic garbage are detected: two in the Atlantic Ocean, two in the Pacific, one in the Indian Ocean and others that are formed day by day ... by an eternity. In addition, these islands of plastic entangled in the remains of the fishing nets that are discarded and that sustain the plastic structure degrade with the action of the sun and become microplastics that are digested by the fish and also reach us. We are many who raise our voice about plastic pollution throughout the planet. Let's do something to find a solution!
