Plastic

It’s a problem we all know about. There are a lot of good ideas of how to aproach the problem but not enough is done. We need to rethink plastic and how to replace it completely.
In this work, I wanted to focus on packaging plastic. How can I find solutions for something that ends up in the bin so quickly, how can it be changed in form and texture and still look aesthetically pleasing. I tried to do this with the focus on an organic look, because the contrast between something far from nature and something close to nature was very exciting. Here are a few samples wich were created with knitting and embrodery in this process.
