Larissa McPherson: Speculative Adornment

Opening reception on Friday, February 7 from 6 - 8pm

Plastic has become an unwitting colonizer of the natural body and ecosystem. Throughout time, humans have extracted fossil fuels to create plastic materials. Over time, these man-made materials break down and migrate microscopically. Through their abandonment, an act of our human carelessness, plastics on a microscopic level have started to act of their own accord and seek reunion with the earth in any way possible, unknowingly causing pain and discord in the lives of animals. This crisis has spared no species.
