WINDOW EXHIBIT: CAN WE END OUR PLASTIC ADDICTION?​
​
Since their mass production began after World War II, plastics have proven immensely useful, cheap, and versatile. They touch every part of our lives and have profoundly changed how we live on a global scale. But today, the resulting tsunami of plastic pollution is choking our planet, polluting rivers and oceans and infiltrating and slowly poisoning virtually all organisms, including humans. Artist Taina Litwak's visually striking window installation at the Crow's Nest challenges the viewer to consider how to reduce our dependence on plastics, to accept the multiple failures of recycling programs, and to imagine how plastics may be managed sustainably and perhaps eventually replaced with better alternatives. ​
