statement

The majority of the work I’ve been doing over the past decade has been centered around exploring plastic debris as a viable art material. We think of plastic as disposable when it is precisely the opposite, so I extract it from its problematic destructive fate and utilize its potential to become a source for enjoyable reflection. It is a process of rescuing, de-contextualizing and romancing. Developing more appropriate, robust and integrated methods for managing our residue is essential at this time. I see creative stewardship as a future positive way of art making that provides elements of creative problem solving and present day relevance to any studio practice. ” (Robson 2019)
