“British artist Michelle Brand found her inspiration at the bottom of a plastic soda bottle. Brand’s artistic eye saw the shape of a flower at the base, so she collected 366 bottles from a landfill to create the Cascade Lancashire Chandelier. The resulting fixture is five feet of incandescence.”CNN MoneyThe root of my interests lies in sustainable waste management. At present it has manifested itself into a designer maker practice.I have designed an aesthetic and decorative fabric from which most people in the western world would perceive to be waste/rubbish.The fabric is composed of plastic drinks bottle bases, which have been cut, sanded and then tagged together.I love seeing design opportunities where most people only see problems.
