Constellations
Nurdles are small plastic beads. They are produced by industry, then sold to companies who melt them down and create plastic products found in computers, cameras, clothing fibers, single-use bottles… Chances are that the plastic products you own started out as plastic beads. Nurdles invade rivers and oceans as pollution, when carelessly released into the environment through shipping container spills and careless transport. The cyanotypes in this series are shadows of nurdles that resemble the cosmos. Constellations, becomes a metaphor: Like the stars in the universe are infinite, seemingly small to our eyes, and vast, so are the countless nurdles released into riverine and ocean environments. They lurk in beach sediments, often unnoticed.
