throw away art...

just loving....
this eleven metre high whirlwind of debris and all it has to say. Beijing - based artist Wang Zhiyuan created society art piece Thrown to the Wind to be something much bigger than himself.
and that it is.


reaching high into the sky... a larger-than-life tornado of plastic waste, representing the heaps of plastic domestic waste that overwhelms his hometown, it's surrounding environment and the world beyond. whilst it first appears to be something spectacular, amusing, even clever...


on closer inspection and then reflection...
becomes horrifying, embarrassing, evoking and overwhelming.



it shouts loud....we sure have a problem here. and that we do. xx
