A series of 8 Valentine greeting cards designed using 100% beach plastic I’ve collected on my local beaches
in New Jersey and New York. I always sort what I can for recycling, but know that a majority of it will sadly end up in landfill.
This doesn’t sit right with me because while *yes* it IS better that it’s not in the ocean… it’s not exactly *much* better
to bury it into the earth somewhere else. The sentiment makes me feel powerless… and so I’ve started keeping an assortment
of the plastics I pick up. It’s physically impractical for me to keep it ALL - but I plan to use what I can to create art and continue the important conversation through that art. I keep coming back to the Carrie Fisher quote:
“Take your broken heart, make it into art.”
