Invasive

It looked like bubbles on the ground, but it's an artwork called Invasives, by Jean Shin.  Recycled Mountain Dew bottles make up the green carpet.

 

Upcycle

This installation is mesmerizing and beautiful...

and made from used plastic coffee cup lids.

It's called Remember me Katrina, by Susie Ganch,  depicting the swirling storm that was hurricane Katrina

The lids were still stained with coffee.

 

Grand Chandelier

Walking around the latest exhibit at the NC Museum of Art, I thought they had a magnificent chandelier.  Until I looked closely.

It's an installation called: Luz de Plastico   by American artist, Willie Cole.   It is created out of thousands of single use water bottles.

It's part of an exhibit called Fault lines: Art and the Environment.  (see here).
