I love an art intervention, something that can shake up daily life a bit and make you think, so was super interested in the work of artist Adrian Kondratowicz when it flickered across my screen the other day. It's all about trash - garbage, rubbish, refuse, call it what you like; we've just got too much of it and keep on dropping more at the curb.
So, rather than getting all apocalyptical, Kondratowicz has been working on bringing wit, humour and even a bit of glamour to idea of thinking about reduce, reuse, recycle and how much we actually toss on a daily basis. His project "Trash - anycolouryoulike" has been hitting spots around NYC, most recently in the Meatpacking District, and has caused quite the stir. Well, how can you ignore pink polka dot trash bags?
Check out his work here, you can buy the bags too (they're biodegradable and naturally scented to repel insects and vermin) or commision Kondratowicz for your very own trash intervention.
