Recycled materials drew attention to the ocean plastic in Anna Presivic groups – huge
Since the climate crisis is getting worse around the world, its effects are not more clear than in our oceans and societies that depend on them. Sensitive coral reefs, for example, face pressure not only of the high levels of sea temperatures but the remains of human existence – pallets, stunned fishing equipment, and other waste.
Warm water is usually the perpetrator in Coral bleaching Events, which are characterized by algae leaving living organisms and turning a ghost white. Algae provides a nutritional source and helps protect coral from the disease, but when it goes, the host is left more at risk. to Anna Presivic (Previously), this phenomenon inspires the work that draws attention to this urgent issue.
The last series, PlasticIt is reflected on the problem of constantly increasing plastic pollution in the surroundings of the Earth, with the contradiction of the beauty of marine ecosystems with their weakness of human influence. The artist accurately cuts the silhouette from the bleaching coral reefs and grassyone – also known as the sea fans – and warns them of jewelry that reminds us of wreckage.
“I live along the Atlantic coast, as I collect marine waste that inspires and feeds on this work group,” says Presivic. “Everything is made of recycled paper, blogged fabrics, and natural dyes.”
The artist describes Plastic As “a calm echo of a reality that slows down slowly”, as it threatens the accurate plastic and waste continuously underwater habitats and biological diversity. “Through this work, I hope to ignite questions about our relationship with living ecosystems and what we choose to see – or overlook.”
