Encapsulate

Installation view of Encapsulate - a textile sculpture consisting of hundreds of fragile natural elements held in fused soft plastic circles.   The circle represents the eternal circle of life, unity, nature. Also reuse, recycling, repurposing. The light shining through the clear discs highlights the captured beauty within.  Whilst the durable, un-natural plastic prompts thoughts of global issues around plastic use and disposal. Designed to be exhibited outdoors to allow the breeze to become a part of the work, making it shimmer and lift in the wind.
