I am intrigued by the quantity of consumption and consequent littering of objects by human habitation in the environment. The consequent ,visible flux in the physical appearance of the city ,makes me curious about the choices of consumption we are making and process of making of the garbage itself. Both of these, have eventually come to constitute the visual forms, the process and the content of my art project.
